Lively in the summer from morning till night really is a lovely place. Sitting on the balcony watching the world go by was so relaxing and peaceful. Great views. Nice breeze comes through the apartment which was so nice especially as it was very hot when we stayed. It’s a home from home, got everything you’ll need to have a great stay without any worries.
