After reading the previous reviews we were a little worried about what to expect on our arrival, BUT, we were pleasantly surprised with this apartment. David and his team were really friendly and welcoming. We received a great email of 'David's top tips' with local sights restaurants to visit which was of great use. The lighting in the main sitting room is a little dark if you don't make use of the spot lights above, but the rooms are bright and airy each with a Juliette balcony and opening doors. The apartment is very clean and contains new furnishings and appliances throughout. It is only a 5-6minute walk to the nearest beach. The city is charming and the streets lined with trees and dotted with quaint features. Word of warning - this city is not hire car friendly as the parking is dear and cars are not needed to get around. There is no street parking (unless you are local) but there are a lot of underground parking garages. David helped in advising on a local long stay parking (15 minutes away) in which our hire car stayed the entire stay. The city offers fantastic entertainment for all ages and local restaurants are of high quality but eating in just as good with local supermarkets supplying best fresh produce. As a runner the city is a little frustrating with traffic lights stopping pedestrians at every corner, but once on the beach front and seaside/river paths there is wonderful views to take in with at least a 10km run to be had and perfect for a scenic route (go early because it gets hot). On check out day we spent the morning cleaning up but were surprised to be greeted by a cleaning lady at 11am. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wished it were longer. Thank you David!
