Everyone with whom we had contact for the stay was so friendly and helpful. The flat has a ton pf space, and the balconies and windows let in so much light that you feel as though you are in the clouds. Great kitchen, very well equipped. There were 6 of us, and there were plenty of towels. For places that I've stayed in Europe, the bathroom was good size. It was terrific to have a washer and dryer (there was laundry detergent too!). There is a grocery and bakery right on the same block, along with a few restaurants (Try the Nepalese one. It was wonderful.) It was quiet and right on one of the main bus lines. It was very easy to get around. But yes, there are a lot of stairs.
