Amazing place to stay in the heart of the rocks

Amazing place to stay in the heart of the rocks
The Rocks
6.8 out of 10, (5 reviews)
"Location was perfect. We absolutly loved being in such a historic area. Amazing stores/shops/food all over the place. We were not prepared for the hills and steps but had a great time. Great communication with the owner. We were able to check in a little early after an early morning flight. House layout is a little odd (but expected for an older place like this). Main floor has 2 bedrooms, living room and the only (very small) bathroom while kitchen and master bed are upstairs. We had 5 adults...
