Please let me know if some thing breaks - it is much easier to deal with if I have some notice! The apartment is in a residential building. Out of respect for my neighbours, no late arrivals (no later than 23.00 pm) and no early departures (no earlier than 7.00 am) because wheely suitcases waken people up.
