I could not have dreamed up a better location, so close to everything and yet in a quiet alleyway!
Having spent time previously in the old city (and finding my favorite hotel closed) I was thrilled to find this - far better, could not have dreamed up such taste, beauty, delight and comfort. What a fine stylish taste exhibited everywhere, and on the walls real oil paintings can you believe, very inspirational! A pleasant short walking distance to my favorite restaurants and most excellent health massage and acupuncture. In addition, a huge bonus is the beautiful museums also a lovely tree lined short walk nearby (one also has a Saturday organic market), as well as my favorite Sunday evening market at Three Kings. A kitchen to die for; i was amazed at the most modern conveniences and tasteful everything. Usually I eat out for the whole time, even three months, but this inspired me to cook, and what a wonderful new experience to actually go shopping for veges in the markets (felt like a native dweller rather than a tourist), and then to cook in the finest cookware, all so delicious. I loved making my own mango papaya smoothies (fruit only about 50cents a pound). Also great to have wash machine and dryer, so convenient. So I give it a 10 out of 10, actually really a 20 out of ten! I'm counting the days till I get back to this lovely townhouse, my new favorite place to stay, which enhanced my overall experience of the city immeasurably.
