If you want to be as close as possible to both Old Town and the beaches, I don't know if you'll find a better location. Apartment is simple but nicer than the photos suggest, and incredibly convenient for long days at either beach, exploring Centro, or of course eating and drinking in the Old Town. Noise issues mentioned in some other reviews did not bother us at all - the downstairs garage door is audible from the bedrooms but used once or twice a morning, and we didn't need the earplugs we packed just in case.
