We liked the apartment a lot. Has everything you need to feel comfortable and at home, and it is tastefully decorated and appointed. We really appreciated the lift after a long day of walking. Gala is a communicative and easygoing host. Area is a little gritty, which didn't bother us but might be an issue for more delicate holidaymakers. Also, we noticed that the nearby M Train is the one featured in the opening credits of 'Welcome Back Cotter', which is very cool.
