We were rebooked here after a last-minute cancellation. It was lovely! Beautiful apartment with hand-painted tiles and ceilings. The balconies are beautiful and it's right at the heart of all the action. Being so close to the town centre, I do suggest you bring ear plugs. It's the perfect mix of historic heritage home and new modern appliances. There's a cafe right downstairs for breakfast, and everything else you could ever need within a km.

The apartment was clean, nicely decorated, well stocked and very spacious. The views from the balcony were great. We enjoyed being outside and watching what was happening on the streets below. Due to the wonderful location being so close to the action, it can get a bit noisy at night, but nothing that some earplugs couldn’t fix. I would definitely stay here again! We enjoyed walking to all the sights and restaurants and our check in and check out was seamless.
