The flat certainly benefitted from the winter sun, which bathed the balcony with glorious light. I even got tanned eating my breakfasts and reading the news out there. This time was my favorite during my stay albeit because of a cold wet weather front I had to have breakfast inside, but the room was quite warm enough with the aid of the provided fan heater. l lived in Asia for over 24 years and travelled extensively, I am used to the construction noise, but as in most cities around the world drilling, banging etc made up the other background noises ( including birds chirping).
I have to say that the 'double' bed was more like a slightly bigger single bed in Western terms, but for Locals it is standard size.
The nature of my stay meant that although I arrived with carryon luggage I had at times 2 additional suitcases a giant bag of clothing and a 4ft high artifact I bought in Papua New Guinea, all of which I retrieved from my storage. This made it cramped, but manageable.
