Nicola made us feel more than welcome. He greeted us on arrival, provided coffee, tea, water and a present of a bottle of wine. He gave us a map showed us where the supermarket, bus stop,best local restaurants, markets etc were. He spoke excellent English but spoke Italian at our request. The flat belonged to his grandmother so was a genuine Italian home with all the amenities we required. He lives on site so checked in regularly that we had everything we needed whilst respecting our privacy. He invited us for coffee twice to get to know him and practice our Italian. He responded to any requests very promptly and helped us order taxis etc so made the whole trip very easy.
