The apartment is beautiful, with loads of old Spanish charm, and is in a great location- not in the middle of the tourists, but close enough to the sites. Lots of close restaurants and shops too. At night, the neighborhood is quiet. The early use of the storage locker was absolutely the best (we came off a cruise ship at 8:30am and we would’ve been stuck with our bags otherwise). We even were able to check in several hours early, which was so appreciated! And 3 full bedrooms and bathrooms were a blessing.
BUT- I think people need to understand that historic charm in old buildings with gorgeous tile floors, plaster walls and ceilings, and old wooden doors, also means a general lack of noise-proofing and lots of echoing in the hallways and through walls. The street noise is pretty loud in the kitchen/living area during the day, but disappeared at night. Unfortunately, we did have some loud-talking neighbors that I had to drown out with the white-noise machine I brought on our trip. For us, the noise issue didn’t diminish our enjoyment or appreciation of the apartment; the easy check-in, the storage locker, the 3 beds and baths, the charm, and the location, were all absolutely worth renting this apartment!
