The Apartment was beautiful and very spacious. We had a group of seven and it was nice to be able to fit everyone in and still have plenty of room and privacy. The location was spectacular, right in the center of everything. One of our guest had recently recovered from a broken kneecap so I was concerned if the elevator was dependable as they still had problems with steps. The elevator was small but cute and dependable. The apartment had so much character with extremely high detailed ceilings and beautiful floors. Unfortunately I have stayed places that have inaccurate pictures of a rental. Where the photographer must have been extremely talented at making something look much nicer and bigger than it is. But this apartment is just as nice and big as the pictures. There was an issue with the living room AC upon arrival but they came to fix it the next day. The AC in all of the rooms worked well enough to keep it cool. The building also has a hotel and what appeared to be offices but it was not a busy place. I was unclear on the layout of the building when I booked but to access the apartment is straight into the foyer from the street, in to the elevator which takes you almost right to the door. Obviously it would be nice if it was less expensive but it can’t be beat if you need a large apartment in the center of it all. It is on a busy street but the noise wasn’t bad except when there were sirens. If you are a light sleeper you may feel differently but we were all so exhausted no one lost any sleep! Overall we were pleased by the beauty, cleanliness and location.
Side note: The restaurant just a few steps away from the main entrance, Hedera was wonderful for breakfast, dinner and drinks. I highly recommend their mai tai. The staff were amazing and although it is near the tourist area it is not a tourist trap by any means.
