    Such a beautiful accommodation in the city center. Feels like home really. There's a very inviting terrace on the top, wish I could've spent more time hanging out there, but I only had one day to explore the city.

    it's a home stay, not a hostel only. Like a petite hotel in the alley of old town. Beside those comforts, the atmosphere is just great ! Thanks the warm hearted hostress.
