The apartment literally has everything that you need for a great stay. It is well appointed, and spacious, without having any wasted space. The front porch area is lovely, with nice flowers and plants, and it is on a very quiet street. Just ignore the rooster. He is part of the experience anyway. The washing machine works great, and our hosts had everything we needed supplied, all we had to do was show up, unpack, relax, and enjoy our time in Chiang Mai. Which we did, thoroughly. We will gladly return to this great place on our next trips.
