Cozy Apartment
Apartment is fairly basic and has all the things needed. Location is good if you want to be in a quiet road within 20 min walk into old town city center. Good restairant nearby. Coffee shop with basic breakfast too. Parking is next to the apartment which worked well.

Casa Wagner Brasov
The location is perfect, the rooms are big and quiet, the breakfast is good, and there are many restaurants and bars steps away from it. There are no elevators, but if that’s not a deal breaker then I highly recommend it!
