The place is in a convenient location to shopping and the underground, is kept clean, and has a good floorplan for a family or group of three couples. Unfortunately, it is very rundown (peeling paint, appliances that don't work, broken furniture). Most importantly, the lift didn't work (and this seemed to be the rule, not the exception), and we had to walk up and down about 135 stairs every time we went out. The stairway was dirty and missing railings.
