I stayed here with my wife for 1 week in the middle of May 2014. The studio apt. was very clean and well appointed. The host met us at our arrival, showed us the place and explained everything that we needed. The place is smaller than the impression we got from the photos, but big enough for our needs. We were only they for sleeping. It has a small, yet well equipped kitchen, spacious bathroom, lots of storage for clothes and comfortable bed. There is not plenty of natural light because of the 1 window and door that faces the courtyard. The area is great.You have two super markets at your doorstep as well as half a dozen gourmet shops. You are very close to three bridges that take you to the historic center. An abundant amount of cafes, stores and restaurants for all types of budgets. We very much enjoyed our morning coffee and cornetto at the cafe San Cosimato (2 euros pp). I suppli, an excellent inexpensive take out counter and Antica Caciara, cheese heaven on earth, both on Via San Francesco a Ripa are not to be missed, as well as Norcineria Iacozzilli. I would come back to the same area and stay at Riccardo's once again and recommend it to anyone.
