Antonio's place is very well situated in the city - close to a lot of sightseeing, restaurants, cafes, etc - but far from the noise. We were a little worried upon seeing the karaoke bar and disco on the street below, but didn't have any trouble with noise in general - but we were there during the week. The place is small, but great for a short visit. The stairs are steep and there are many, but as long as you don't mind a hike, it's a good place. Antonio is a very gracious host and has lots of maps and guides available in the apartment to assist you in your stay. Oh, and the wifi is *really* fast.
