Alessandra’s apartment is a cute studio with a lovely terrace that we enjoyed sitting out on when whether permitted. The location is just a stone’s throw away from John Cabot University so this location is most ideal for younger crowds or visiting family during the school year. Though it was loud when outside of the apartment (particularly on weekends), you could not hear the noise in the apartment.
We stayed for 1 month, and while we were very happy with the amenities, we were impacted by construction taking place directly upstairs which caused a lot of dust and debris to fall all over the apartment. I know this is only temporary and outside of Alessandra’s control, but it’s worth mentioning since it impacted our stay and comfort.
Check in with Alessandra was easy as she was waiting for us on our arrival. She also took time to go through restaurant recommendations. However, communication throughout our stay became a bit hit or miss. We had my sister come to surprise us during our trip so we had to rent an additional mattress from the cleaning company... while Alessandra was very helpful to help find accommodation, when the day of my sisters arrival was approaching we hadn’t heard back from her so didn’t know if or when the cleaners were coming by. We found out they were when we walked into the apartment and they were working. Not a huge deal but made it a little stressful.
Lastly, some really great things about Alessandra’s apartment — the bed was very comfortable! The terrace was lovely to sit out on and enjoy a glass of wine or coffee in the morning. Alessandra is very nice and accommodating, and provides detailed instructions on how to use amenities like washer and dish washer. Great location right near John Cabot and lots of restaurants and bars.
