The apartment is a less than an 10 minute drive to the train station, but a 30 minute walk. It might be tough if you have many bags like we did. Elisabetta set us up with a taxi that gave us a fairly good price. The apartment is on the 2nd floor, with a lot of steep steps going up to it. There are also steps in the apartment, as it is 2 levels, but it's not so big. The first floor has a kitchen and a washer that we couldn't use because we had difficulties getting it to work. The top floor has a thin mattress but a good bathroom. The place has AC and wifi, which is good! It's on a busy street. It's a 15-20 minute walk to the ferry.
Communication with Elisabettta was great as she answered is immediately. She explained that she was away on vacation but that Dinesha would meet us at the alarm tent. Because of the language barrier, we were unable to get a lot of information about the area and the sites.
