This is ultra cute apartment in the heart of the action. the location is very central and walkable. yes you need go climb stairs, but even an old person like me was able to do it multiple times a day with no real issue. If I had to pick a downside it is the noise... however the sound proofing in the bedroom was excellent. if you were planning on having someone sleeping on the sleeper sofa you might want to bring some earplugs.
