This apartment is ideal. It's large and comfortable and was warm in December with lots of hot water and a good shower. The place has everything you need and the hosts put up a Christmas tree and decorations. Along with their two sons they spent 2 hours showing us around the local area and helping us with restaurant bookings, we had a great laugh with them. They called into us on Christmas Eve with wine and cake.
We had other friends staying n a hotel and their experience was not as good as ours!
The area is old and full of life but some people might think it's too noisy. The good thing about the apartment is that it is in a quiet street so no sleepless nights.
There are items in the apartment to buy if you are too tired to go to the shop but there are lots of food shops and eateries on your door step.
I can't recommend the place and Alfiya and family highly enough.
