The apartment had everything you needed and the rooms were a decent size and it was comfortable but it lacked soul and warmth. It was all very dull or no colour - just pale cream and grey/black/brown and nothing on the walls making it feel empty. Ok if all you want is a bed but if you want to spend anytime there, i wouldnt recommend
