somewhat mixed experience.

narrow staircase useless wifi

The communal staircase access was quite narrow. It's not really suitable for anyone with mobility issues. the apartment lighting also needs attention, especially in the bathroom. One of the three lights wasn't working. the wifi was essentially useless, showing a connection but no actual data service. it was all rather inconvenient.

Acceptable Stay with Fixable Issues

narrow stairs limited storage

My stay presented a few noteworthy issues. The hallway was somewhat shabby, and the stairs leading to the apartment were steep and narrow. The bed was rather small and uncomfortably hard.. There was also a distinct lack of storage for clothing. I found the wardrobes full of cleaning supplies, towels, and an ironing board, leaving no room for my belongings.
