The bedroom was actually a loft. The steps were very narrow and unevenly spaced, which we felt made them perilous to navigate, especially during the night. There is a large threshold to enter the apartment and a step down to access the kitchen and bathroom area. The private garden area only consisted of a very small table and 2 chairs flush up against the apartment. There was a larger table close to the apartment where some guests sat and smoked and chatted. The courtyard also serves as a parking lot, not what we consider a garden area. The apartment is narrow and slightly less than 8 feet wide. 34 square meter description does not clearly inform. It is a historic building and we believe they made the best use of the small space that they could. It was relatively quiet and away from the city noise. The office staff was welcoming, allowed early check-in, provided information about the city and a map and attempted to help if needed. It was dim lighting with only ceiling lighting provided in the common area, rather than lamplight. My husband and I found it difficult to read.
