The place is as pictured-has a beautiful view and is far away from the touristy area. The airbnb is perfect for a get-away if this is what you're looking for. Practically speaking it wasn't the best for us as a family. It was challenging to get there via public transportation, carrying heavy suitcases up the many flights of stairs and a stroller everyday up/down for children and elderly was really tough. There were maintenance issues that needed addressing which they were aware of and communication could've been a bit quicker but otherwise it was a good experience.
