We really enjoyed our stay at Raphael's place. It was spacious for two couples. Our favorite feature was the outdoor patio. It got lots of light and was great to sit at in the morning and evening before we went out. Old city is walkable-about a half hour away-but there are plenty of restaurants about a 10 min walk away.
Also, Raphael was great easy to reach and super accommodating with our check out and check in times. I thought his place was a great value and would definitely recommend!
