The location of this flat truly can’t be beat. It is worth trudging up the four flights of stairs, and navigating the escape-the-room style locks on the door: the apartment is incredibly spacious, with two private bedrooms, a large living room with great views to the east, and a large kitchen and eating area stocked with all the necessities.
The apartment is a bit noisy at night - but that’s something that comes with the location. We had only one minor inconvenience: the television didn’t work for us. Traveling as a family, we missed the opportunity to kick back after the kids were in bed, and we missed the opportunity to catch the World Cup games playing at the time (my 10-year old wouldn’t sit still for very long in a bar). Brian later confirmed this was a hardware failure; I hope he replaces it soon.
All in all, we had a good stay. I’d recommend it to anyone who want’s a good, central location, and doesn’t mind the noise that comes with.
