Really excellent location and a good experience overall. It's a quirky lil place. Communication with Franca was timely and the host is flexible in general.
Some negatives:
The apartment is located on the top floor with no elevator (90+ stairs to climb), which isn’t ideal if you have heavy luggage.
The place isn't ideal for long stays as the apartment is old with a lot of the owner's stuff in the apartment which gives you very lil space for your own things. Additionally, basic amenities like extra toilet paper (beyond the one roll provided), shampoo etc. were missing which this can be a bit inconvenient for long stays. I had to get my own toilet paper etc.
The water pressure in the bathroom is low and the bathtub and sink leak after use.
