The location is great for exploring the city, while perfectly located for taking strolls along the sea. Restaurants, bike rental shop, tourist info are less than 5 min. To get to the beach is about 20 min, but the walk is nice. There is a craft beer under the apartment, and Spanish windows are less noise reducing than areas that get colder, so you can hear the night life, but I never had problems sleeping or was woken by the noise for a whole week. The beer there was also top notch.
