Friendly welcome by the neighbour, Virginia. The area is not central but not too far from the places to go and visit (around 20 mn by foot). Rather quiet too.
Good parking places in the street (first half of August : parking free in the afternoon - and a bit expensive if you stay all morning, but we used the car. Parking nearby : 40€ / week - interesting to know).
The flat was nice and clean, I only regretted the absence of a real oven (or at least a microwave oven that can also be used as a traditionnal one) and of some cooking stuff (I bought a potato peeler and left it for the other guests).
All in all a good experience in an interesting city.
