Carla’s place is nice and well decorated.; however there were no sheets, pillows or blankets for the sofa beds. The location is difficult to get to especially with suitcases. Our taxi dropped us off 7 blocks from the apartment (with luggage) because he could not get down the streets. The next day, we went to the nearest taxi pick up (Piazza Dante) but could not get a taxi in time to join a cooking class. There is very little privacy if you open the windows because apartments are across the alley. Also you cannot leave the windows open for a breeze because of the street noise. The apartment is perfect if you want to experience the local night life.
