Beautiful house and great host. The room can feel a bit small when there's stuff everywhere (not enough space for luggage) but the great big bed makes up for it.
The house is about a 30 minute walk or one bus drive away from the modern city centre. I wouldn't even dare walk from the house all the way to Old Town (too many slopes).
It's possible to park in the street but we had difficulty finding a spot. Pro tip: if it doesn't say "permit holders only" on the road markings you can park there! Just make sure you pay what you need to pay.
