  : I really liked the location: a magic combination of a 10 minute walk to the beautiful main square and the many incredible food and drink offerings, whilst still being on a quiet, peaceful street with no through traffic, or entertainment venues to disrupt the night. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable, and the near-silent air conditioning was fantastic to have on 5 hot August nights. The bed was big, very comfy, and the light bedding provided was perfectly judged to make a guest comfortable without overheating. The room (Room 2) is ideal for a single or a couple, but might feel a bit cramped if using the fold out bed to sleep a third and/or fourth person. The bathroom was spotless and felt really calming, especially after walking around and exploring in the heat, and drinking at my friend's wedding late into the night. The shower was fantastic; really roomy, immaculately clean and modern, with a big head and good water pressure, and the shower gel and soaps were good quality. Ramona, the host, was very kind and so helpful, and although busy, responded to messages and voice-notes really quickly. Her attention to detail meant she added a little bedside table to the room, just so I could charge my phone by the bed still, but off the floor, instead of having to lay it on the floor to charge it.
  : The main improvement would be breakfast options - Even if Casa Veche came to an arrangement with a local bakery to supply warm croissants and fresh juice, this would be better than nothing. COVID made providing breakfast uneconomical it seems, as previous reviews prior to 2020 mentioned breakfast. I would like English tea in the room and some milk/cream pods provided.
