As I write this review in Gabrielle's fabulous apartment, I can hear music wafting from the amazingly talented students at the nearby music school. The view from the loggia could not be better. It promises places to explore, and amazing food and wine. The apartment is well fitted-out with everything you could need: great little kitchen, good bathroom with a washing machine, big, big bed which is great if you like a firm mattress, and fantastically airy living/dining space. This is April and the weather has been brilliant, there are few tourists, and, apart from the very exuberant students and other young people in the Piazza Verdi at night, the stay has been delightful. At the time of writing, work continues on the installation of a lift which should be helpful as the apartment is on the fourth floor: great exercise but I wish I was a bit fitter. Gabriele is an amazing host with brilliant advice about the city, great walks, and great places to eat. He has even booked us a taxi for the trip back to the airport. Gabriele, you are a lovely man! Thank you so much!
