Our stay was amazing. The room was right outside of the square and we got to listen to performers each night from our window once we got home each night. The room was clean, bathroom was clean as well. The walking distance was so perfect, we never had to take a taxi, bikes, or any other means of transportation. Lastly our host was so kind in gifting a bottle of wine and letting us store our luggage after checkout to avoid having to bring them on last minute museum trips. Would absolutely recommend!!!

Our family of four rented the deluxe apartment, which included the kitchen. It was a great location, very clean, and convenient to everything. The sofa wasn’t super comfortable for sitting on, but that’s kind of minor.

The room was comfortable, clean, and quiet. The location was superb, right in the center of the old town. We were given a welcome gift, and voucher for coffee and pastries around the corner, which were excellent!
