Excellent position. Well appointed but possibly needs new mattresses and new living room chair as well worn. Overwise excellent apartment.

Unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend staying here due to the beds, they are so uncomfortable. We have both come home with back pain, we tried both bedrooms but they are equally uncomfortable. Otherwise I would say we enjoyed our stay, the location is excellent, upstairs neighbors are quite noisy, coming in late at night, sofa and chair not terribly comfortable but with new beds, We would definitely come back. The kitchen was great, we had to buy a new bread knife, someone must have walked off with the old one.
