You do have to climb several steps to reach the apartment, but once you get there, you're treated to a wonderful view of the mountains and a beautiful property. The apartment is located in a farmhouse typical of the region. It has been lovingly renovated, is very charming, and appropriately furnished. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't summery enough to enjoy the beautiful pool. The owner, in her friendly and helpful manner, always had good suggestions for things to do. We felt very comfortable.
