We feel compelled to offer a few words of caution to future guests. The apartment is located on the third floor of a house, as was advertised. Three flights of stairs needed to be conquered in order to reach the apartment. This might not be a concern in general; however, I would caution guests who are older and who possess mobility difficulties, subsequent to injuries or illness. the steps are relatively narrow. The lumber on the stairs and on deck surfaces is rather old and in need of repair; as evidenced by a few splinters in one hand! One other concern was a somewhat weak security feature in the sliding doors into the apartment. Although the door lock was adequate, generally, it would have been reassuring to be able to put some piece of lumber along the bottom of the sliding door, to make sure the sliding door would not be forced open. With respect to other safety matters, we did not notice any fire extinguishers or smoke alarm in the apartment, which would have been nice to have.
