The BEST location for exploring old town. Amazingly, when the balcony doors are firmly closed, there is no street noise from below. However, while the flat is beautifully renovated - like all the other homes in the old city - it is in an older building. The stairs are narrow and the apartment 3 floors up - a consideration for people with larger luggage or who have difficulty with stairs (not an issue for me). Additionally, you can hear *everything* from the apartment above, from a chair pushing back to the door locking and unlocking. I downloaded a white noise app for sleeping and didn't notice the noises again. :) I would highly recommend this apartment. The location is unbeatable, the wifi works, and the host is a pleasure to communicate with. She even left me snacks in the fridge on arrival and fresh flowers - very thoughtful. Thank you!
