Down Town stay

Cozy apartment with an excellent location in the city center, steps away from Main Avenue. Easy walk to lots of sights, shops and restaurants. The apartment has all of the amenities required for your stay and most important a reliable internet. Located in a second floor decorated with a nice interior wood design. If you are a light sleeper then I would not recommend, the location is noisy as it is in the middle of the city with a bus station outside the building.
