Rachel’s place is beautiful. It’s on the second story of an older building, but the inside has been well premodeled. The kitchen is fabulous— modern appliances, everything you’d need to cook, and even a wine cooler!
Rachel provided lots of information about places to eat and things to do in the area. She is an artist, so lots of interesting work in the house. There is a lot of natural light in the apartment, which also keeps the place An oddity: Some of the light switches don’t do anything. Let this go as an eccentricity and enjoy the place.
We were happy with the location— it was just as described. You’ll need to Uber to places like The Old City or the main tourist sites, but we left in the morning and didn’t come back until night—happy to be removed from the hustle and bustle. There is a bar within walking distance. My friend kept her window closed and heard nothing. I left mine open and heard some mild noise— nothing really bothersome.
My only caution: I wouldn’t recommend this place for people with mobility issues. The steps are narrow and fairly steep, and the bathtub is high to step over. If you don’t have problems with that, you’ll be fine.
