This is a great location as very easy to walk to the cathedral and Alcazar and other sights. We found that some of the more interesting restaurants (Fargo/La Traga for eg) and shops were actually nearby rather than in the touristy centre. We did find it quite noisy where we were as it's on a narrow street so the noise of traffic and people reverberates up to the first floor where the apartment is. And also the noise echoes around the apartment block itself as it's based around an open courtyard. You have to keep the shutters closed to keep the noise from the street down (they help somewhat but don't entirely block it out) which also means it's very dark. So, I think this apartment is good as a base, but I think not if you are wanting to spend significant time in the apartment relaxing. The flat is reasonably basic, but it is cheaper than most for such a good location. Alison was very warm and welcoming and the apartment was clean and tidy. Lovely hot shower!
