The actual space is beautiful. The old steps and big windows. You can feel the history just walking inside. The living room is nice to sit and relax. The views from the gardens are stunning. The doorman makes it feel safe and the location is perfect. There are however a few things that were less than ideal. The guard mentioned it was very old. Some random guy who didn’t speak English brought us the key and it wasn’t with who arranged to meet us which was confusing. The door code given was incorrect and we found out when we couldn’t get in. The kitchen is not usable like others have mentioned. The freezer was completely frozen oven like a solid block of ice. The dishwasher had dirty moldy smelling dishes in it. The bathrooms also had moldy grout and bad sealing on the glass which got water all over. They did offer to send the cleaners but I declined. This should have been addressed prior to our arrival. You need to bring any and all soap, shampoo etc. there was hand soap and toilet paper however. The bed was so uncomfortable that both of our backs hurt by the time we left. There was a safe in the closet but it is broken and just gets in the way. We enjoyed the area and the peacefulness in such a busy city but I’m not sure I’d stay here again unless they refreshed it a bit.
