Porta Aurea

Position was perfect. I was met by a local resident at the airport so glad I didn't have to find my own way to the accomodation as lots of small winding laneways and taxis can't enter the old town. Easy to find your way around once there - very hard to get lost! Two flights of stairs so be aware if you have mobility issues. The travel agency around the corner held the keys. Lots of fabulous restaurants and we were recommended to a couple which didn't fail to impress!

great location and lots of space.

loud bar below apartment and noisy until midnight.

We loved the apartment decor and all the extras, like washing machine and hair dryer. While small, it was so charming. The location was fantastic - in the walled town and so beautiful!

The only problem for us was the noise from the cafe/bar under our window. It was very noisy until 2 am each night.

great location. very comfortable and clean. loved our stay

central location. walk to everything. charming decor. experience the old town.

very noisy from pubs below. even with closed windows, impossible to sleep at night.

the location is great and central to everything

there’s not enough hot water for five people - as it’s an old building you’ll have to wait an hour or so for the hot water to come back it’s quite a small space for large groups - I would recommend that even though it can sleep up to 5 people - that it is suitable for only 2-3 people there’s no large mirrors or full size mirrors - only mirror is in the bathroom it’s on the top level so quite difficult to get up with suitcases

The apartment was full of character with exposed old stone walls, and in a great location, but there could have been a few more comfortable touches. We visited in rainy April and we found that one thin quilt on each bed was not enough, we were cold at night and would have liked extra blankets. A shower mat would be good. The apartment does have wall heaters, which worked fine to warm up the air, and we didn't need to try the aircon. We didn't use the sofa bed but it would probably be fine for a couple of nights. There is no double glazing so you will hear the sounds of the old town - people having fun in the bars and restaurants at night and the cathedral/church bells from early in the morning. We were shown in by a very helpful person who gave us a map and told us tips on where to visit.

Great location for exploring the old city. Cute apartment, very clean, washing machine was a nice bonus.

There is a restaurant/bar in the courtyard below, so it can be a bit loud at night.

Beautiful apartment in fantastic central location. Historic building but tastefully renovated and modernised. Comfortable beds and sofa, plenty of hot water, very close to lots of tourist attractions, shops, bars and restaurants. We were 5 people and it felt perfectly spacious. Very helpful host on arrival with local information and tips.

Be aware that due to the location there will be a certain amount of noise at night as there are so many bars/restaurants close by. Not a problem for us, but worth to note there is no elevator so there are several flights of stairs to reach the apartment.
