In my opinion:
Everybody loved it, you will too!
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
Be open and look for all the sports activities. Check out the night life but be aware of the trouble on the street at 23h00. Relax and approach the people with respect, they do not always deserve it but they are easier to handle that way in any case.
