I would agree with everything I reas in the other reviews. The location is perfect for El Carmen - easy walking distance to everything and also 1 minute from a the road where it’s easy to grab a taxi. Yes, the noise can be strong, so if you are a light sleeper and want to sleep early you will have noise. But in most old quarters in most of Europe and in a central location you may find a similar scenario. The apartment is full of charm, very comfortable and Juan was kind, flexible and a great communicator.
