The position of Velvet is fabulous being a short stroll from the station and close to many attractions. The views are to die for especially on sunny days which we were lucky to experience during our long weekend stay. The apartment overlooks a popular tourist photo opportunity spot, which is a bronze statue of an old lady on a bench. This is visited constantly by people and it is fun to 'people watch' the various nationalities as they take their turn sitting by the old lady (she was very important in the Salvation Army doing great work for charity). Sometimes it can get quite noisy even through the fantastic double glazing and extra thick curtains but it didn't spoil our weekend. A real bonus was having a fridge so we stocked up on wine and found the view for our nightcap was unbeatable.
