Great authentic home in a very walkable area. Yes, personal items are there as it is a true home, but I prefer this over a sterile space. There are stairs and a handrail to enter the apartment, but it wasn't a problem for my father who walks with a cane. There is noise from the center courtyard, but it is to be expected in an apartment building.
It is always hard to figure out what neighborhood to stay in when traveling to a new city and wanting to avoid the tourist traps. I loved this area! It couldn't have been better. Thank you!
