The location of this apartment was excellent and met our needs. The apartment, however, was everything but sumptuous. Although the apartment had been hovered and dusted, it was in serious need of improvement. Shower was very cramped, ran out of hot water several times, duct tape between shower floor and bedroom carpet, stained upholstery, sad appearance of kitchen countertop and cabinets, and no bedroom floor space for luggage made this apartment poor value for the money.
Although we were warned about the steep and narrow access steps from street level, I would not recommend trying to lift 40 pound suitcases up and down these stairs unless one is very fit.
