Federica’s apartment is beautiful, comfortable, and conveniently located. She is a wonderful hostess and gave me a little tour of the area at the beginning of my stay.
There are many good cafes and restaurants within easy walking distance. Many of the main tourist sites are less than a 30 minute walk away. The neighborhood feels very safe and I enjoyed walking around in the evening as well as during the day.
Some reviewers have complained about noise. I never heard a sound from any of the other apartments, however, in spite of the new windows I did hear street noise. I never found it intrusive and except for an occasional car passing by, heard nothing after 10 pm. It certainly won’t stop me from staying at Federica’s again. A little noise is to be expected when staying in a historic building.
