If interested, this flat could easily be converted into another unit for guests.

The building has been completely renovated and equipped with all amenities. Only high-quality materials were used for the work: handmade pink terracotta tiles, brick vaults, recovered ceilings with exposed terracotta bricks, chestnut and oak beams and frescoes by a well-known master.
