A clean, friendly family-run place. Simple rooms on the second floor (shared balcony) and deluxe rooms on the top floor (private balcony) look over a courtyard, with a view of the mountains to the north. Breakfast was not an option, but there are three excellent coffee shops within 1 block. NOTES: As of January 2019, the rear garden area has been replaced with the construction of a new building on the property. To locate the office (there's no sign!), proceed into the courtyard past the steps and you'll see a large window with tour signs on the left. The office is the family's kitchen

My husband and I spent one night here. We had the lovely “parrot” room with a balcony overlooking the mountains. The room was clean and the staff were friendly and accommodating. I found it a bit expensive, but everything went very well with our stay.
