Would be a good place if building had been maintained
Pros:

The view is spectacular and the location is good

Cons:

The property is old and poorly maintained. Peeling paint in the common area, water damaged outdoor carpet, bathroom had been badly regrouted over old grout - but even this was falling out. Mould in the corners, Bad mildew inside wardrobe
