First off: the location is superb! Within walking distance of everything - sights, restaurants, bars, etc. Safe.
Alex was a great host, he even helped us to find parking and brought us back to the apartment even though it was late. His wife and friends were also very sweet and recommended places to go.
The room was as described, loved the high ceilings and the spaciousness. It was very clean, too.
There is a music place almost directly underneath. During the first night, I heard nothing. In the second I did but they eventually stopped around 1 a.m.
