The view is always my first priority. This unit gave us a great view, and that is the most important piece of my vacation. The pictures show a lovely unit. It looks clean and updated, but I believe that these pictures may be from right after the last renovation. In reality, it feels a bit "tired." There was a hole in the ceiling of the master bath, a huge broken tile area on the balcony that didn't feel safe to walk on, the oven door doesn't close (so heat retention is impossible) and the cooktop dials no longer had markings on them. No way to tell what eye we were using or which way to turn the knob to regulate the heat. The water in the kitchen sink would not get hot. The living room furniture was worn and uncomfortable. For the amount we paid, I was really looking forward to a really nice place, worthy of the price, but it sadly it fell short of our hopes.
