The apartment was in the middle of everything - cafes, churches, attractions. It was spacious. While in the middle of the historical center, the apartment had all modern conveniences. I never really cook when in Italy - what, with so many good restaurants?! - but if one chose to, the kitchen had everything. The bath was roomy and modern - huge shower. And the internet was FAST! The a/c worked great in all the rooms. We once stayed in an apartment in Florence that was advertised as having a/c. It was August and hot and the a/c was a rolling unit with a tube that could run outside - basically less than a fan. Not so here. We only needed it at night and maybe once or twice middle of the day. But it cooled quickly and was really cool. I only needed to contact the host once, but the response in immediate - that was not for anything wrong - just us not knowing how to work something. Anyway - I would stay here again - I would recommend to a friend. Thanks so much!
