This place is beautiful spacious and sparkling clean. Yes it's a little bit of a hike up the stairs, but worth it for the view. The deck is small but very inviting with a very beautiful view of the surrounding rooftops, especially at sunset. There's a hum of noise from the street below but you're high up enough that it isn't very bothersome, and actually nice when you can hear the cello/piano duet playing in the main walkway nearby during the evenings. The apartment itself is super quiet when the door to the deck is closed. There's a very comfortable and inviting couch, and a spacious kitchen with nespresso machine, breakfast nook, dishwasher, and washing machine for laundry (no dryer). The bed is queen sized and very comfortable. The AC in the bedroom worked well, especially with the bedroom door closed overnight. The apartment is in a very touristy area, but the location is very central which made it very easy to get around to most anything in the city. It was a quick 10-15 min walk to get to most any other area we wanted to go to for dinner. Overall loved our stay here, would definitely recommend.
