Stunning apartment, fantastic views ,master bedroom & bathroom 5 star ,well equipped kitchen & spotless clean throughout. Sadly we will be unable to return as the access to the apartment ,has 26 steps to the entrance door & then a further 4 more to the level of the apartment which proved very challenging for my husband who has walking difficulties. As a suggestion the website put a note informing that this property might not be suitable for people with walking or health issues.
