    You basically have the whole place for yourself. Literally a “building” with 5-6 floors, each is a small room. It has good privacy, and the owner is very kind and helpful. The location is just perfect, right in the middle of the Old Quarter.

    Great location, right in Old Town, but the accommodation is down a little lane, so you don't hear any noise at all, so peaceful. I wasn't sure what to expect as I had booked it quite last minute and in a rush. You have the whole place to yourself,...

    The owner is really nice and helpful! He changed the towels and the sheets twice. Location is perfect and you can go wherever you want in no time. The stairs are really small but you get used to.

    Awesome location, cool little place - you get the whole house to yourself. House is 6 floors, but each floor is very small, definitely only book if you’re comfortable walking up and down steep staircases. Staff was lovely and helpful too.
