Fantastic location. There are many shops and restaurants close by and I think it would be hard to better the location. Great fun to walk and explore nearby and you will need a few days as there is so much to see and do.
The apartment is very quaint with an old fashioned feel, yet modern touches and amenities. It is serviced by a lift, but you will probably just use this for luggage transfer as it is very slow and confined. So a quick walk up the stairs beats the lift anyway.
Firstly though you need to enter the building through heavy timber doors, walk into the rear of it and then open a massive steel gate for access. So it is very secure and gives a feeling of ancient times.
There are three levels to the apartment itself, with a fairly confined staircase to climb in order to reach the two top ones. The downstairs area has a shower and toilet and a really great little kitchen. The living area is very spacious and comfortable. There is also a nice fireplace but we didn’t use this as there was no firewood. It was nice and warm anyway.
Had a problem checking in as the car park couldn’t be accessed and this cost us two hours. Eventually found a car park close by and the hosts refunded the cost to my great relief - thank you. If you are driving you can park out the front and quickly unload your bags to the footpath before driving away to park. The hosts own a shop next door and this is where we checked in.
This is a great place to stay and very nice hosts.
