I LOVED this apartment. It is beautifully updated- looks straignt from HGTV! The kitchen was modern, the floors were gorgeous, and the stone wall/exposed beams in the ceiling made it look so authentic to the area. Only one caution is that you have to go up LOTS of stairs to get to the apt and the area feels a bit scary but is fine once you get in the building. Bed is very firm. Highly recommend. So convenient.

right in the middle of old town and place, busy, loud, no parking options. I don't know why they supply a coffee maker when there is no coffee supply. I suppose they want the guest to bring their own coffee.
