Such a cute loft apartment with many cozy personal touches! Staying in the city was convenient however with that, except a bit more of the rough homeless population. They did not quiet down on our stay screaming at all hours of the night and early morning. The building is extremely safe requiring several measures to get inside so we felt safe and we were not approached outside the apartment. We went on several walks to local shops with no problem. The hosts were so responsive and have everything set up for you to have a comfortable stay. In all I think we experienced typical city life!
