We stayed 5 nights at Nicoclo's two bedroom apartment. The apartment was well-equipped and comfortable. We ere a little cold the first night, but Nicolo came right down with a space heater. There is a private sitting area in the back and a beautiful courtyard in the front with a fountain. There are restaurants and a grocery store within walking distance. Nicolo lives in the building and is very attentive. He left a booklet he created with all the information needed to get around. It was really quite amazing. He indicates where the restaurants are, how to get to the metro and the bus. It was great! The metro was a short walk from the apartment which made it very easy to get into the city center. You can even take the metro to the train station or airport, but we used Nicolo's taxi service, which was a spacious black van with a very prompt and courteous driver. I highly recommend Nicolo's apartment.
