My little home is a safe haven in the pulsating city of Budapest. It has a nice Hungarian vintage vibe, I carefully collected every item of my home throughout the years. It is super cozy, homey and comfortable :) There is a hall, a bedroom/living room with a double bed, a dining table and a desk, a bathroom with a small bath tub, toilet and washing machine and a well-equipped kitchen.
It takes around 20 minutes to get to the heart of Budapest. There is a trolley bus going every 10 mins to the city center just 3 mins walk from the house and a Metro 1 station is 6 mins walk away. However, if you need downtime in nature getting your vitamin D, the city park (Városliget) is only a few minutes away, offering various leisure activities, rose garden, Japanese garden, amazing views of the lake and the Vajdahunyad castle. The apartment is also very close (about 6 mins walk) to the Heroes Square, a popular sight in Budapest :) Here you can find the Museum of Fine Arts, the Kunsthalle, the House of Music and the Museum of Etnography. The famous Széchenyi thermal bath, the zoo and the circus are also super near.
There is a small shop just around the corner where you can get your basic groceries. There is a Lidl, a Spar and a Príma a couple of trolley bus stops away.
