Fantastic location with parking in the City. Short walk to the Cathedral, river walks, parks and shops. Love it!Be careful to read the property description and look at the layout plan online as the spiral staircase is as shown. Bathroom and kitchen is all new and well appointed.

Cute home, fabulous location

The flat is just as pictured. The kitchen is well equipped, beds are comfortable, and it was spotlessly cleaned. There is some street noise, but that will be the case anywhere in the city center. I only mention it so I can share the tip to bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Communication with Deborah was fast and smooth. The location is perfect—a few minutes walk to anywhere in the city center. Highly recommend.

Lovingly and tastefully furnished apartment. Host responded quickly. The only thing I would have liked to see was two more hooks in the bathroom. We enjoyed our time there and would come back again.
