..during the day is very busy traffic noise at night is almost non existent. The apartment Is comfortable and relatively clean.the bed very comfortable ..the downside letdown being the kitchen which could do with a whole rework, The kitchen tap could do immediate attention as itâs stiff and a bit loose. Congratulations to the window cleaners that cleaned just the 1 front window out of a possible 8..good job done ? me thinks not !
