The flat was in an excellent location :) Just in the heart of the downtown, next to the cathedral and close to shops and restaurants. The flat is cozy and comfortable, has all the equipment for cooking, with microwave and oven. The beds were comfortable, and there is laundry machine in the toilet ...
