I guess I have a different definition of 'luxury', because while this place is nice, it is better described as 'functional'. For our needs, it was fine, and the view from the deck over the hill and across the city is beautiful.
A few things to be pointed out:
1. this is the bottom of a 3-story unit. Don't underestimate the 20 steps down, as that is a fair ways when you are hauling luggage.
2. As the bottom unit, there is considerable noise transference from the unit directly above. We could constantly hear people walking above us, and not in a subtle pitter-patter way, either. One night, we woke up to loud snoring reverberating from the bedroom above us, and there were more than a few instances where we heard loud music from up above.
3. It is small. The bathroom is slightly bigger than a cruise ship bathroom, and the kitchen has room effectively for one.
4. Kitchen had garbage from prior occupants, and the stove had a greasy pan inside.
Luxury? No.
Functional and central? Yes.
