A unique find right in the heart of the city. It was great having an all-in-one washer/dryer, and the apartment had a decent amount of space with everything needed to cook. Clean, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet. There were also some good cafés and restaurants within easy walking distance. Overall, a solid and convenient place to stay.
