The apartment is exactly as advertised. Once you get over the shock of the stairs, it is a great place to stay. (In Europe, the floors start at 0, while in the US they start at 1. So to me, this was a 4th floor walk up.) Mike provided extra amenities, such as water, wine, tissues and juice. His communication with us prior to our arrival was outstanding, which included a list of restaurants in the area and local attractions. The quality of the linens and towels was very good.
