Beautiful high-rise with amazing views of the city, and minutes from the airport. The complex has everything you could want - pool, fitness area, rooftop lounging area with firepit, library, kid's area, billiards, office/teleconference areas, and a great selection of restaurants/bars on the bottom level. The en-suite washer/dryer was also a very convenient feature before my flight back home. In addition, the Host was super-responsive with all of our questions.

This apartment was fully stocked with everything we could have needed and was extremely comfortable. The building and facilities like the pool were very clean and the location is great, there are many restaurants, stores and coffee shops nearby. The owner was very responsive and accommodating. I can't say enough good things about how well the apartment was stocked, small things that made the stay feel like home.

Beds have two USB ports for charging, reading light and privacy curtains. A perfect oasis before and after backpacking! Would definitely stay again
