The location of this apartment is just perfect to have the best of both worlds. The Metro is two mins walking to get into the center and this is good if you are in the center late and can return home by metro and not the bus. And when you have finished a long day and night in the center, you can return to a nice quiet residential, private street area.
Please note that the apartment is the middle apartment in the set of three apartments that was created by the division of the condominium. You share a main entrance door to the condo, and you have your own apartment front door. For me, (and I am very sensitive to sound) I could hear everything in the apartment next door to me especially since the guests were very lively.
Riccardo was an accommodating, patient and responsive host. He also has a great sense of humor! He loves hosting, is very easy going and unobtrusive.
