it was basically as i expected after reading the description, and scanning over some older reviews. i think we stayed in the best area for our taste, a bit more "hip" than the center and filled with bars, restaurants, and lots of life and energy outside in general.
just one tiny thing to keep in mind for guests in the winter, the house can be pretty chilly (february), as i would expect since its got marble/stone and therefore making it more bearable in the summer heat. but good thing to maybe have some thick house shoes or some layers on. we had a small space heater for the bedroom but it didn't do too much. by no means is this a complaint, but a good thing to remember if you're not used to the designs of buildings which are meant to stay cool ;)
