Cons:

Suggest if you have young children and aged parent , stay away from this apartment. Unless you want to practice those amazing stairs.
Kitchen rangehood is dripping oil.
The toilet bowl is very smelly. I have to spray Harpic toilet spray myself.

Allround comfy and convenient
Pros:

Good location, far enough from town, good access with public transport

Cons:

Bedrooms upstairs were quite hot and no AC to cool them down. A coffee plunger would have been great and perhaps a sharp knife.
A chair in the bedroom to hang clothes on would have been a bonus.
