The bathroom is no longer shared, as some of the previous reviews suggest. The arrive is private within Desmars home, there is a lock for this section. There is a fridge/freezer, gas stove and cooker, dishes and silverware. However the sink in the kitchen area did not work, the bathroom is round the corner so used this instead. It was pretty hot at some points during our stay but the rain helped cool the area down as the window could be opened. All in all, really good price, great location, fully private small apartment. The subway is close by and there are a lot of places to eat in the neighbourhood. Thanks :)
