First, Stephane - great host who helped us with transportation to and from apartment and was very responsive. Thank you!
The apartment: As the description says, a really fantastic location if you want to be in the heart of the action of old town. It is noisy neighborhood - BUT- he has added double windows that amazingly block it all out. Being in the center it's hard to avoid the hordes of other tourists - so keep this in mind. If you want a more "locals" experience you need to go a further from historic districts.
