If you are lucky enough to stay at Kheira and Ben's apartment, you will have a charmed visit to a charming city. Ben made us very welcome and told us lots about the area. The apartment is spacious, the bath like a spa and the kitchen had everything you could want. The neighborhood is busy if you would like that with restaurants and shops and bars or quiet if you like to get away. Our only regret is that we were not there on the days the silkworker's home was open (Tuesday through Saturday 3 -5 pm.) as it is just a few feet down the road from the apartment. Highly recommended.
