The appartement is pretty much as stated, and the host was really responsive and useful when we had something to ask.
However, be wary - it is pretty dirty and really damp. We had some very sweaty nights, even when it was cool outside, and you can expect bugs and rats. The neighboorhood is fine if you don't mind walking a bit and using the subway to get anywhere interesting. Overall, it's an okay place to stay, but VERY overpriced.
