We arrived earlier than the official check in time but only waited a short while in a local cafe to meet the host . He was extremely helpful in telling us all about the best areas to go, where to pick up taxis for the airport, etc. Be aware we had to pay an extra âŹ112 in cash for the tourist tax, plus a balance on card which I was unaware of.
The apartment itself is in a great location for easy walking to most of the main sights,, and we ended up walking around 10miles each of the 4 days we were there.Lots of cafes, restaurants, supermarkets nearby. The apartment was spacious, comfy beds and a great shower - but it could do with a little tlc - missing bulbs from some of the lights, door missing from the dishwasher, cups with broken handles, sofa covers could do with a wash etc.But overall we were happy with our stay, and would probably stay there again if we were to go back.
My son loved the table football , and the uncovered fresco panels on the walls were cool, as was the painted wooden beamed ceiling. Also be aware there are 2 fairly steep flights of stairs to get into the apartment , one in the communal area to the 1st floor, the 2nd directly inside the apartment door, so not suitable for anyone with mobility issues.
