Enjoyed a great stay at Ludo's apartment. It's on the ground / sub-basement floor of a 19th century apartment block, with plenty of historical character (and as a result also lacking in natural light). Accommodation is basic, but cosy and spacious and a comfortable king size bed. Excellent air con and wireless.
The apartment is in a quiet, non-tourist area, but with quick and easy access to all main attractions - just a few stops away. We travelled each day to the beach (about 25 - 30 minutes by metro or bus). The Kessler patisserie on the corner of the street is a must - excellent pastries and inexpensive. And if you like seafood, the Peredata fish restaurant (as recommended by Ludo) is an experience not to be missed - great food and value for money. We dined there two nights running.
Recommended.
