This was a terrific flat for us. It was very quiet, but only about a 25-minute walk down to the old town. There are a couple of grocery stores just down the street, a bus stop right there, plenty of on-site parking, and a washing machine -very useful on a long trip. Karlis is a very friendly and helpful host and he has done a wonderful job designing a comfortable flat with plenty of storage that is also very nice looking. Definitely recommend.
