We are renting a nice 2 bedroom apartment in a building that is just a few blocks from the American Embassy. We are in an older building on the 7th floor. The elevator works and is clean and nicely lit. I (Mary) have been taking the stairs (trying to get my legs ready for ski season). I get Larry to ride up on the elevator with the boys if they are too tired for the stairs at the end of a long day...
Our apartment is very nice. All the basics plus washing machine, internet access, and home entertainment center.
(sorry - I didn't straighten the beds before I took pictures. Everything was perfect when we got here!)
The building next door is being completely renovated. (Interesting watching the work.) On the other side is an empty lot full of 'stuff' and beyond that is a nice looking restaurant. Across the street is another apartment building.
The washing machine is similar to a 'front loader' but you load this one from the top. Anyone not familiar with a front loader style, they use less water, less detergent, easier on clothes but take longer to wash. Our apartment has an enclosed balcony with a clothesline and also a drying rack. Jeans are taking at least 2 days to air dry. (never wash more clothes than you have space to hang them to dry!) We are still trying to figure out all the buttons. It's Whirlpool but not in English.

We returned in April with our daughter and I totally remember that washing machine!!! It would wind itself up so much it would move across the floor!! Thanks for the trip down memory lane and good luck to you and your family!!
