We were very happy with this property and host and would happily stay again. - The apartment is bright and pleasant. It is thoughtfully decorated and equipped (olive oil & cooking basics, a welcome bottle of wine, guide books, maps, bathroom amenities, washing machine detergent, coffee, etc.). - The host is very sweet and friendly.- The location is 10-15 walking distance from the city center which is nice bc it's also less congested/noisy. - The apartment is one level up from ground level, so be aware that you have to carry your bags up two flights of stairs. - Also, the noise on the street can be a bit much with late night revellers, but the host has thoughtfully supplied earplugs. If your windows are shut, it is no issue.
