The apartment was fine to sleep. I would not cook or dine there because there is no dining table, but there are plenty of restaurants int he area. It was not clear from the pictures that the entrance door was upstairs so the stairs inside the apartment could not be avoided. Luckily our child resisted climbing them (they seem dangerous for children). The building is beautiful but has no elevator. We never met the host during our 5 night stay, but he was very helpful on the phone. Arriving by car was touch, the city center has narrow streets and access is restricted to residents. We got a fine for entering the area, but Claudio kindly managed to have it removed.
