The apt. was as advertised. High ceilinged, old building in great location. Nearby restos were very good, Mano Rota just down the street is sublime. (If you are used to big city North American dining, its not even expensive). The street is lively but noise never a problem for us. Easy to pick up bread and supplies on the street. Lovely place to stay. Highly recommended--just don't expect it to be fancy, which it does not pretend to be.
