We loved the location and views. We traveled with two young kids (5, 7) and their favorite part of the trip was the penthouse. We did use the kitchen and made a few suggestions to enhance the at home experience.
Aside from the hot water problem which was remedied by Spencer and the common area next to the private courtyard (which allows persons enjoying the common area unobstucted views into the penthouse living area) we enjoyed the space.
A side note that the mattresses are UK king size not US.
Use caution with young kids around the master balcony.
