There was a lack of basic kitchen equipment ( small items like potato masher for example ).

I would recommend this property as long as you are able to climb 2 flights of stairs, which is clearly stated in the description.

The amenities were very good and warmth when needed with a hot shower. The lounge and bathroom window needs attention for wind proofing as they could really blow through at times. A very nice apartment overall though.
