It's popular with students and young professionals, and one resident calls it 'cosy' and 'everything within easy reach'. The area has a very high address density (5,642 per km²), so it's busy but convenient.

Leiden Centraal station is 1.3 km away, about a 15-minute walk or a short bike ride.

The apartment has energy label C, which is average for a pre-war building. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not as good as modern standards. You can expect moderate energy costs.
