This is a charming place that literally backs up to the old Cathedral. The view from the patio area is amazing - just like the photos. Alex, the host, is very attentive and responsive. You should know that the Duplex has just one bedroom, plus a sofa bed in the living area. The living area has great views from the windows, but is very noisy at night from all the hubbub on the river front and from the crazy birds that swirl and scream near the bridge. There was also a constant jackhammering during the day from a hotel being built into the rock on the other side of the bridge. That appears to be a long term project.
The patio area is fabulous. The view is truly amazing. The little kitchen that is on the patio level is very adequate. You do need to go down four very steep flights of stairs from the main area to get to the kitchen and patio. I would not bring kids or anyone who is not sure footed and healthy. The stairs are open so you can see the bottom as you walk down them. It is a bit disconcerting. It is also daunting to have to go down there first thing to get coffee. Once you are there, it is definitely worth it though.
We left early because we thought we were getting three bedrooms as we rented the Duplex plus a studio. That was partly our fault from not reading the fine print. The Studio is cute. It does not, however, have any place to put your clothes, or to hang them. It also does not have any outdoor space. We thought it also had an entry to the downstairs patio as it looked like that in the photos.
