This family-run place is an ideal combo: close to tourist zones, but on a pretty residential block, so you feel you're in a home, inside and out. Some rooms are a bit small and can show their age, but the upstairs balcony is a fine breakfast spot. The cheapest rooms have baths across the hall (private, not shared).
