As other reviewers have noted, the terrace is the highlight of the place, with a spectacular view of the Cathedral as well as a nearly 270 degree panorama of the city and its surrounding hills. The neighborhood is lively and it was terrific being so close to the food market. The main bedroom had a delightful cross breeze but, as others have pointed out, there's a narrow spiral staircase to get up there. Not a problem for me & my boyfriend but I imagine an older couple might have issues.
