The apartment is nice. The living room and kitchen area is a common area shared between 3 guest rooms rented separately with a bathroom in each room. The rooms are a nice size, the bed wasn't very comfortable. I rented here because I thought I was getting the whole apartment without other guests, because I needed to do laundry on our trip. We were startled when another guest entered the apartment. It may be common for the area, but not in the United States. It should have been stated in the listing, so we knew what to expect before booking.
