“The location places you perfectly for enjoying the Stephan's plaza, and with the subway nearby, the Opera House and cathedral are easily within reach. I think its historical architecture, updated with modern renovations, creates a charming environment. A quiet residential setting combined with being so close to the city center sounds like the best of both worlds.”
