Fantastic location Everything within walking distance or bus Love that I could open the window, no refrigerator in the room but there is a safe Everything was so clean. But one thing to perhaps update would be the shower curtain, it looked clean just a slight musty scent

Nice two bedroom apartment. Worked perfectly for family of four. It is very quiet and you can just rest and relax. Definitely would stay again!
