Wonderful stay

The apartment is so warm and comfortable and pretty! It is sizable for 2 people which is nice - we like the separate kitchen and the outdoor space. We stayed for 3 weeks and it was marvelous to call this apartment our home for our stay. It has everything you need including a washing machine! Cecilia is so lovely and helpful and attentive! The locations cannot be any better as it is quiet but very very close to all of the most popular and interesting sites. We loved our stay!
