This apartment really IS huge. The couches are comfy, the beds are GREAT! We thought they were firm but not hard. Oh goodness it’s in SUCH a great location in lesser town. A short (uphill) walk to the castle and it’s just SO BEAUTIFUL! The apartment manager allowed us to add a car parking to our stay last minute for 20 Euros per night. That was also great. There’s a pub I would recommend trying just around the corner named U Magistra Kelly! They have incredible food and the people who work there are great too!
Be warned about the American embassy. You cannot get to this apartment without pulling over to let the cops check the car for bombs. You must pull over, get out and open the hood and trunk and then close it back up and move on. It’s no big deal but we had NO idea what the GPS meant when it kept warning us of a “limited access road” until we got there. I then stopped in the middle of the road (WRONG) to talk to the police who were approaching my car since I didn’t know WHY they were stopping everyone. They seemed very angry that I didn’t know what to do. They do speak English and all in all it was fine but it would have been nice to have known what to expect.
