The apartment was every bit as good as it looks on the photos. It's only 5 minutes' walk or so from the old town, and there's a convenience store, a supermarket and a couple of cafes just round the corner. Alex was a great host, greeting us warmly when we arrived tired and frazzled from a delayed flight. He even booked us a table at his friend's restaurant in the old town, walked us down there and introduced us - and it was a great meal, just what we needed. Highly recommended!
