Notes for visitors

Access: Please note that the apartment is located on the third floor. There is no lift and the only means of getting into and out of the apartment is by six flights of steep stairs. As such, this accommodation might be unsuitable for some disabled visitors and anyone who is likely to find climbing up and down steep steps regularly difficult. However, if requested, assistance can be given with luggage.
