If you appreciate design, you will be delighted with this custom-designed apartment where every detail has been considered. We loved the minimal design, high-asethetic blond wood cabinetry and luxurious closet space. Even the practical, yet elegant, wooden furniture is a project of an accomplished architectural firm that maintains an office in the same building. We stayed 3 weeks and, though the kitchen is small, it is well thought-out, very well equipped and completely workable. The surprise for us was that we could step directly out into the garden (with a reflecting pool) and experience tranquility right in the center of an active tourist area. Fortunately, the apartment has very good acoustic control. We couldn't have been more pleased with this stay. Pedro + Alice make a gracious host team and were very responsive and helpful with tips about local goings-on. We would definitely stay here again.
