After a very easy check=in and entrance, we step off a narrow steep alley into a perfectly finished corridor, glamorous twisting stair with fine wood banisters, a cleverly finished wall that reveals ancient brickwork, and....a fast and functioning elevator. On the second floor, the door to 2E opens easily and reveals a simply decorated modern apartment with shuttered windows and mini-balconies over looking busy Sao Jao. One can choose to enjoy the bustle outdoors, or close the windows to absolutely soundproof. A tiny miracle kitchen somehow squeezes in a cooktop, fridge, microwave, sink, dishwasher AND clothes dryer, most cleverly hiding behind wooden panels. Bathroom has a half-glass shower, which unfortunately requires great care to not flood the floor.
Small toiletry shelf, some undercounter storage space. Bedroom closet adequate, little tables and reading lamps on both sides of comfy beds with generous bedding. It was perfectly comfortable.. I would only suggest non=slip mats under the rugs as they are slippery on the fine wood floor.
