This apartment was wonderful. Its location cannot be beat. It is in a real neighborhood that has all local stores. Plus it is near Bon Marché, many upscale stores, and access to a major metro stop, plus several bus routes. The additional books and maps, especially the large one on the wall, were all very helpful.
