First of all: The location of the apartment itself is awesome. You are located right in the middle of the ancient city center. On the downside, this makes it also super noisy. Not just a little noise – very very loud till 2am and starting from 6am. Earpluggs didn’t help much. Cars are not allowed in that area and you have to walk 15mins over cobblestones to get to the airport bus. We took a taxi (as Luigi recommended) and just walked 200 m to the apartment, but with suitcases its always a little hassle – just if you are not great by foot, bear that in mind.
There are many great shops, take-aways, restaurants and bar options around the corner.
The apartment is much darker than it appears on the photos. Actually it has only a door to the balcony and the bathroom has windows to the dark patio. The kitchen has no window at all – additionally the lighting in the apartment is very cold and uncozy. It would be easy to switch the ligtbulbs to warmer lights and the whole ambience would be much nicer.
We were there in May and it was really chilly outside – the heater worked great and kept us cozy. The style of interior is modern, which was nice. The sofa was not really comfy.
We are not used to sharing one big duvet/blanket – and there was not really the option to have two smaller duvets (one was in the pull-out-sofa but that was too cold for our season). But that is just individual taste.
The bathroom and the fridge were not cleaned properly. There was a very unpleasant smell coming from the drains in the bathrooms all the time, so we had to leave the bathrooms windows opened (which didnt really help a lot as it just goes out to the dark backyard-patio). Loving touches and the little things were missing at all ends, especially in the kitchen - no dish-towels, no kitchen roll, salt, only 3 glasses, very blunt and very few (2) knives, no coffee maker (in Italy!).
Generally the apartment is quite ok. But if you consider the above, we would go for another apartment next time.
