The apartment was all I’d hoped it would be: private, convenient, well-equipped and charmingly outfitted — so much that I could imagine living there. It offered a comfortable and quiet place to process an intensely joyous and emotional reunion with college classmates. Should the opportunity arise, I’d be pleased to stay there again.
