I mainly communicated with Maria's son Edoardo during my stay as Maria acually doesn't live in this huse. Edoardo is so nice and helpful to me. He shared much information about Italian food and culture to me. The night he showed me how to cook Italian cuisine and then we ate together has become a memorable experience to me.
The apartment is in city center with a good location. You can reach bus station within 5mins and the bus takes you about 15mins to train station. For most of tourist spots in city center, you may reach them by walking within 20mins.
Highly recommend this place!
