Excellent location

Nice apartment, clean, easy access, private courtyard. Most of usual things supplied. Take your own condiments. Pillows provided are very full and fluffy, take your own if you prefer a lower pillow. Parking spaces are for SMALL sedans only - no wriggle room at all. Very quiet, block of 8 flats, only saw one other occupant the whole week. NO traffic noise.
