This apartment was very clean, and the bed was both lovely and comfortable. The tiny refrigerator badly needs defrosting and the kitchen was less functional than we'd like. The wifi was sporatic, which made the tv mostly unwatchable. Loveseat and chair were also comfortable, and the location was great.
