The apartment was very nice, clean, well appointed, recently renovated, and very attractive. The bed was amazingly comfortable and the shower was one of the best I've had in Europe. The lighting was very well done and the photos were very accurate. I liked the central location as you could walk easily to anything in the heart of the city (Guggenheim, old city, great restaurants). That said, the neighborhood immediately around the apartment is gritty and a bit dirty and I'm not sure I'd recommend it for, say, a woman traveling alone. I kind of liked the opportunity to stay in and experience a non-touristy and not upscale neighborhood, but that location may not appeal to everyone.
