7.6/10 Good! (1,001 reviews)
Poor maintenance of plumbing, basin washers worn, shower head water more on to ceiling under pressure than thru the nozzle. While good central heat & cool, the low fan noise so high I needed to make it turn off to sleep. Yet the room itself was good so attention to existing services required really let's it down

Nice apartment and well equipped. But note that the 2nd bedroom has no window or a/c. I had to leave bedroom door opened during sleep. Great location. Easy to take tram.
