Mare II - Studio in Old Harbor

I enjoyed my stay at the studio. The location is great, in the old town, you really feel the vibe. There is an awesome and spacious balcony where I chilled most of my time at the room. Bed was comfortable, A/C was working fine, there was a router inside the room so WIFI was great. The hosts also provide some basic cutlery, glasses and mugs, coffee machine and coffee so you can also enjoy a coffee and breakfast there. The wardrobe had a lot of hangers for my clothes, which is always appreciated and rarely given when travelling. Easy to find, communication with the host was great. In the bathroom soap was provided, and some cleaning stuff like a mop if needed. Right under there is a brunch place which I also liked a lot. All in all a very pleasant stay with my highlight being the balcony.

- The shower has been mentioned a lot, it is indeed narrow. I'm a normal size person and had to find some workarounds and get used to it but it wasn't a big deal for a short stay. - The room is never really dark, there are no shutters and the curtains are semi-blackout and still leave gaps from the windows so plenty of light getting in both in the morning but also in the night, as a shop across the street has a ridiculously strong light for security I presume. Also I found a bit annoying the very strong green 'exit' light above the door. Not sure why is that needed but it is really strong and disturbing for sleep. After the first night I had to cover it with something. - Last, beware that there is some noise in the hood, not constantly. There is good sound isolation from the windows though, but can't do miracles when the church bell is ringing or the near bar has loud music. Most of evenings though were fairly quiet.

The lady named chara was very helpful and kind. She was waiting my parents until 12 am to give them the keys and show them the studio. The location is great and everything is near . The balcony was the best part for my parents they enjoyed it very much. Very clean as well.

The bathroom its a little bit small but its okay. Other than that everything was perfect.
