Although centrally location on the Ave in the U district the apartment is surprisingly quiet in the evening and offers a nice respite from the hustle and bustle below. It's also surprisingly spacious and there is a beautiful view of downtown. The full kitchen was perfect and the complementary beers made it feel like home.
One thing to know is that there is currently construction next door (not sure for how long) and you will hear the noise in the morning. For early risers it's not terribly loud and the noise can't really be heard in the living room so it's not a huge problem. For others this may be a deal breaker so I mention it for full disclosure.
Overall I would recommend and if ever in the need of a room in the area would be sure to come back.
