Great location, but some challenges that make it overpriced.
A quirky apartment set in the midst of charming car free winding lanes and courtyards. Guiding video and advice re parking was very helpful.
However, we were given only one set of keys for 2 couples. Keys are needed to get in and out of the courtyard gate and then into the house itself. The lockbox is outside the gate so two sets of keys are necessary to ensure no one is either locked in or out when going out or staying in separately and and having to come back or wake up to give access. Being locked in with the key outside the courtyard in the lockbox felt unsafe. One set of keys just does not work.
Long and short black and hairs were left in shower from previous guests.
There were a number of needed repairs and replacements that the owner is attending to, but some things are more difficult to fix:
Cooking in the kitchen causes the kitchen and bedrooms to fill with smells and smoke as there is no extractor fan.
However, the terrace was a great bonus and cooking can be done there if everything is carried up and down the stairs.
Low water pressure makes it difficult to use the overhead showers and you need to wait between showers for the water to heat up again in each bathroom.
It would have been good to have had an iron and ironing board available.
The sofa downstairs in the photos has been replaced with a sofa bed that is uncomfomfortable as seating.
The little balcony off the kitchen was a delight with a pretty table and chairs and cats visiting.
