firstly, be aware this appartment is right next to four lanes of loud motorway; we didn't know this and had trouble sleeping because of this. the whole appartment is very dark - not sunny, even during the day, and the bedroom is very hot. if you are planning to cook a lot there is not a lot of utensils. you also have to walk through the host's sleeping to get to the private bedroom. it is very well located next to a tram line for easy access to the city centre and there is a small supermarket around the corner. Silvano is a good host and we did enjoy our stay here. we didn't use the free breakfast apart from on the first day, it was very tasty and a nice touch. although Silvano doesn't speak English and we don't speak Italian, the language barrier wasn't a problem for us.
