Location couldn’t be better. Easily walkable to most attractions. Lots of space! Shower / tub was narrow but you get used to it. Wouldn’t definitely stay here again. Having a laundry machine was really helpful!

We loved everything about it. Proximity to sites, morning sun light streaming into kitchen ease of checkin, being in a quiet real neighborhood and away from the hustle of the tourists

We enjoyed our stay - host was great, apartment was clean, had lots of space, convenient location to food and sites, cute rooftop patio. Gave it 3 stars, it's more like 3.5. The stairs are narrow and steep, I think there are 45 or so, and they are worn so you feel like you are going to slide off. The bathroom was long and narrow, same with bathtub so it was hard to shower without touching the shower curtain. The bed was rock hard, I'm a side sleeper and my hips were aching each morning. Bedroom could use a dresser so you don't have to live out of your suitcase. The lock on the patio door had just broken so that was a little unnerving. Great to have a washer but it left the close pretty wet and the clothes took a while to dry.We still recommend the rental if those issues don't bother you.
