Josephine offers a slice of tranquility high in the roof tops where you can hear the sound of the castle waterfall. It's tastefully furnished and is a perfect hideaway for those wanting to be in the heart of the atmospheric Old Town but, would like to still get away from it all and sip a glass of wine whilst enjoying the romantic views over the terracotta rooftops. Josephine is also a good budget option for those wanting a lot of space and character for their money and it can sleep upto four people. As with most buildings in the Old town this 6th floor apartment has no lift, but, the staircase is easy and comfortable to use and this is the only way you can find these incredible views and enjoy the cooler breeze. So unless you have walking difficulties Josephine is definitely worth it!

Laura&Sean from Darlington
We enjoyed our stay Josephine tremendously, it is a lovely apartment and the views truly spectacular, we had expectations but this far exceeded them. The greeting hamper was a nice touch and the Rose went down particularly well, in fact we enjoyed a chilled glass whilst looking over the rooftops at the Castle Waterfall, beautiful! The wonderful sounds of bells from Churches and Cathedrals ring out during the day and only enrich the whole experience. The apartment itself was immaculate and we needed for nothing.The greeting was informative and nothing seemed too much trouble. Thank-you so much Yourniceapartment you are highly recommended by ourselves and we very much hope to come back and stay early next year.
