Great location! The apartment turned out to be so close to many of the places we wanted to visit that we walked to most museums and parks/gardens we visited. Because the location is so central, when we did take taxis, the fare was always reasonably low (compared to the Uber estimate).
We didn't cook at all while we were there, but we did do laundry. The washing machine and the drying rack arrangement worked great. If we had cooked, we would have definitely got some fresh pasta from the two vendors that were within a two block radius of the apartment.
There are many supermarkets within a three block radius, as well as many, many restaurants and coffee shops. Disco Supermarket (one and a half block away) had, in my opinion, the better selection/price of wine - in addition to the coolest name.
All in all, we only spent nights in the apartment, and it was totally relaxing and comfortable. Everything works well and it is super clean. Antonio is a great host!
