A gem! We felt so welcome and relaxed in Giada’s apartment from the start. Giada helped us arrange transportation from the train station to the apartment which was a huge help since we were traveling with children, a car seat, stroller and two decent sized suitcases. Someone met us to let us in and show us the house, and Giada was available throughout our stay for recommendations and pointers. The location was ideal for us, off of a quiet street, close to great restaurants and shops, and felt we very safe. It was a decent but doable walk to center of the city but we enjoyed the opportunity to explore. And very powerful A/C for easy sleeping at night :-) Our stay concluded on the same day as a taxi strike, and Giada must have called every contact she had to find a driver that could take us to the airport! If only she had a network of houses across Italy I would stay in each one!
