was at the top of the building and only accessible by the staircase. equivalent to 4 stories. we are travelling for 6 weeks so have bags that weight 12 -15 kg and I have arthritis. it was hard to move our luggage. This would be great if its clearer when booking. despite this it was a lovely apartment.
The process to get access is a bit convoluted. Once you have booked , and the booking confirmed you only then are advised the owner want to do a security check and you have to send a deposit and photo ID for an external company to complete the security verification. it would be good to know this well in advance as we like to know who has our personal information and how they ensure it is only used for this purpose and protected.
we were also instructed that we would have to take out our rubbish at the end of the stay, back down all those stairs along with our bags, and place it in the allocated bins. This is something that paying guests do not usually have to do. owner may want to consider that the guest already has to do a bit to get access to the property so taking out the rubbish and putting all used linens ( towels and strip the bed) into the shower might be for the cleaner ??
