This is an ideal location if you want to be out of the touristy neighborhoods and get more of a feel of local life. One thing to know is it's directly across from a bar that stays open until midnight so it's not quiet. We ended up loving the bar and the people were so friendly. The place is comfortable, with a nice sitting area with a couch. We enjoyed having the kitchen to make breakfast each morning. The "patio" is actually just an airshaft. The roof top was way too hot to ever enjoy in September but could be nice in other months. There is a washing machine up there which is nice.
