Cozy place in the heart of the walled city

Rooftop deck made the trip

The location of this place is fantastic. Stores restaurants and bars just around the corner. Living with locals not in the tourist area. Very safe area. We walked the the clock tower area and back almost every night and felt totally safe. The roof top patio after dark always the icing on the cake. Sitting up there with a cool breeze over looking the roof tops and looking down on the street was amazing. Will definitely stay there again.

Everything is very used it doesn’t work. Address advertised is wrong so check in was stressful. No water until10 next day. Wash machine doesn’t work. Not hot water. Water heater doesn’t work. We left next morning. No screens bitten by mosquitoes. Hear everything outside. Really uncomfortable

Great Location

Superb location for seeing the old wall city. Fairly quiet street yet close to everything you want. Rooftop terrace a bonus. Quality bedding and towels. Excellent beds in a very quiet bedroom. Kitchen/living area small and windowless. Good couches, washing machine, good fridge equipped with water and beer, compliments of the owner. However, minimal plates and utensils. Two showers, both without hot water but that's normal. All 3 floors connected by very tight spiral staircase. Anyone with a mobility issue would have a problem with this. Owner excellent with communication, free pick up at airport. Overall, enjoyed the place but it does need a good scrubbing in parts.
