4 Minutes to Downtown by the Atlanta Beltline Trail in the Cabbagetown Neighborhood
The apartment was great for a group of friends. The location is great with lots of things within walking distance. There is a garden in the back which is good for relaxing at home. There were a few rough edges but for the price that could be expected. All in all, good value, location and hosts.
