We had a truly unforgettable time in this ancient city. This wonderful flat definitely played its part. It’s impeccably clean, of great size for 2 (or maybe more) people, features a spacious balcony for enjoying the Mediterranean night (with one major downside, see below) and is located in a likable area that is remote enough from the very touristy center to feel like an authentic neighborhood, while being close enough to all the sights so you can walk. If you don’t want to take that time, a great subway connection is just down the block.
On top of that, we found our host to be extremely friendly and helpful.
The only thing I have to note as an issue (but which will apply to many flats in the city) is the amount of traffic outside, and the resulting level of air and noise pollution. If you are a light sleeper, you might want to take precautions.
That aside, I warmly recommend this place to anyone and would definitely come back.
