The good:
The apartment is beautiful, great furnishings and very comfy. Good WiFi and TV. The view is great.
The bad:
We were not warned about poor access!!
DO NOT stay here if you are traveling with heavy baggage. Access is complicated and difficult.
It is not a duplex, it’s an apartment building without an elevator and this unit has 43 narrow steps up. It is located on a hill down a narrow cobblestone road with no turn around.
TIP: if you choose to drive to apartment BACK DOWN THE ROAD. There is no turn around! There are cars parked in either side so you might have to back down the sidewalk.
DO NOT STAY PARKED ON ROAD, Neighbors will box you in 2/3 cars deep. We had 5 neighbors come up to us and warn us.
Parking is a nightmare.
The street is so narrow there will be only a few inches to spare, and there are a lot of scrapes on walls.
I’m a very confident driver and it was nerve wracking.
If you park anywhere else you WILL have a big hike.
There are some escalators for part of the hike, they are not always working. You will 100% be carrying all your items up lots of steps.
I would only stay here if you are traveling light and don’t mind hiking - it’s great once you get there.
Ideally a couple riding a motorbike would think it’s perfect!!
