Great apartment just needs a bit of maintenance.
Pros:

Views are amazing

Cons:

Could do with a good room dusting, looks clean at first but dust behind the wall mounted tv and average plastering fix on water damaged ceiling was a bit of a downgrade. All in all an awesome apartment just getting a bit neglected.
