We arrived on Easter Monday and Barbara was already at the apartment waiting for us.

Barbara was a wonderful, gracious host - she kept in contact with us every other day just to make sure we had all we needed.

About the apartment: clean, clean, clean! Charming apartment built in the 16th century - convenient 2 bathrooms (great water pressure!) which made it easy for the 4 of us to get ready each morning. Spacious rooms.

The bedrooms face the piazza which is really cool, but....if you are a light sleeper, even the soundproof windows will not completely eliminate the sound from the square. There was especially loud music one evening - when Barbara called me to check in the next day I mentioned this to her and she worked her magic - no more loud noise for the rest of the week!

The interior rooms (kitchen, living room) do not have windows, and if you travel before May 1 you cannot use the air conditioners (Italian green law) in those interior rooms, so it can get stuffy. Opening the bedroom windows helps air flow, but then the sounds from the square are more noticeable.

I wanted to point these two things out. But they are minimal compared to the comfort of the apartment and the AMAZING location and awesomeness of Barbara! She is great and I highly recommend her!
