A lot of stairs, even after you get into the unit. Bathroom is on the lower floor with the kitchen and living room. We used the clothes washer and hung the clothes outside on the small balcony. All appliances worked well. It was in a very touristy area which was a downside for us but others might appreciate the central location. Could not hear street noise in the unit. Bed is Very firm. Lots of room to spread out. Stephano is very friendly and helpful!
