The place is exactly as described, or better. Wonderful view, nice apartment, kind welcome (a bottle of wine and something to bite on as a welcome - super nice!). We had all we needed to prepare a meal. In November most places in the area are closed (not only party places but also shops, plus most of the ATMs) but well, that's how it is when you travel outside the tourist season.
All in all, very good experience! Would definitely recommend.
