We loved our stay. The decor is lovely. We had tons of space to really spread out. There were plenty of towels, and the kitchen was well equipped. There was a shared laundry room with machines that would both wash and dry your laundry. No switching machines to dry. The property has a beautiful courtyard. The location is excellent, with loads of restaurants and sights in easy walking distance.

Location is great! Having only one bathroom which is upstairs is a little unhandy. Parking is a pretty good little walk which is also a negative. However, the great location makes up for a lot of the negatives.

Great location for everything- just blocks from great restaurants, bars, parks and tourist attractions. Walking distance to just about everything you'll need to see or do. Accommodations were perfect. Second floor overlooking the courtyard with fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bed & bedding, cozy living room and charming decor.

Incredible location

Amazing location, well apportioned lodging. Only criticism is it wasn’t clear to me from the listing that the one bathroom is up the circular staircase which was awkward but would likely still return as long as that wouldn’t be an issue for someone in our party

Great Location for Tourist Sites, Shopping and Restaurants

The location was excellent. We didn't have a car, but we didn't need one as everything we wanted to do/see was in walking distance. This would be perfect for a couple. The sole bathroom being upstairs was a bit challenging, but we managed. I'd definitely stay here again.
