Some info has been automatically translated.
Open lush drapes or sip some coffee on the balcony and look out onto a cityscape that's barely changed in well over a century. On the left, you'll see the medieval gothic towers of the St. Mary's Basilica from where the famous trumpet call is played. This bright, stately studio features chic furnishings, old tiled stove with original copper elements and stylish pieces of modern art. Situated next to the Market Square, it is the best place to explore the city's rich history.

Other things to note
- The apartment is located on the 5th floor and unfortunately there is no elevator
- The check-in and out hours are not sharp, however, the exact times should be agreed with me before arrival as I may have other guests check-in or check on the same day. Thanks for your understanding.
- In order to adjust the room temperature, use the device situated next to the entrance.
- The apartment is located in a residential area. Please bear in mind that loud parties are not permitted. Thank you.
