It’s a great choice for travelers who appreciate authenticity and local charm. My only note: if you’re bringing heavy luggage, be prepared for a bit of a climb—this city is hilly, so packing light will save your legs for exploring the beautiful streets and sights. Overall, an excellent stay and highly recommended.
