This apartment met my needs really well. It was close to my place of work and the view was superb. The seagull that tapped on the bedroom skylight early in the morning was freaky at first but part of the attraction after that. The kitchen worked for my simple diet - fruit and salads- but may be thought of as in door camping without an oven. I didn't test the hotplate or microwave. The stairs may not be suitable for people with access issues but are ok for people who are reasonably fit. I really enjoyed my time there and would definitely use the place again.
