quiet and secluded apartments with very welcoming hosts
Um . .. Yes, Gobble, I don't think I'll pass that idea on to "my" lady 
(she's a bit too old for you anyway
)
Up/Down - well yes, that's very nice, and we enjoy Jojo's piano music there, but the management now insist that you eat there (it's not really an economical venue when she's out on her own without my credit card!) and there's other reasons why U/D is not ideal for her.
I perhaps should explain that I am resident some 500km to the South-West, and can only "escort her" some of the time. The GF Hotel is okay when she's with another friend, but there's times when I can't be around and she would like to go out for a "quiet" drink in the evening on her own.
Was hoping that there was some locations where there would usually be several expats hanging around who would be likely to keep an eye out for any "hassle".
