    The apartment's location in the Old Town district was a treat, being close to Camera Obscura and World of Illusions. Exploring this historic area felt like stepping into a whimsical maze, with centuries-old buildings and narrow alleys leading to hidden treasures.

    Stairs for top floor.

Just be prepared for some steps as the apartment is located on the top floor. we were really happy with our choice and would definitely recommend it!
