The metro station is just a few minutes’ walk, making transportation super convenient. There are several supermarkets nearby, which is very handy, and the beach is only about a 20-minute walk away—perfect for a stroll or relaxing.

After the first day here we immediately booked some more nights as did most of the other people. Met some great people and had one of the best weeks of adventure in a beautiful city, highly recommend :)
