Coming from the states and this being my first time in Italy I wasn’t expecting all the cobblestone streets. It made it difficult to get from the train station to his apartment with luggage. Once I got there he was very gracious and carried it up the 114 steps. You heard correct! That first climb is a butt burner but you “kind of” get used to it. The roof top is where it’s all at! Plus you’re very close to the main street so it’s convenient to a lot of things. Would recommend this place!
