Arriving at the large wooden door, we immediately felt we were staying somewhere very different to our home in the UK. The entrance, the apartment and the bit in between felt genuinely Italian and not international like many hotels.
All the windows had a double shutters, which helped with both the temperature and the noise from the busy square below. The hosts were extremely helpful and the apartment had everything we needed, even silent air-conditioning units.
The bed had good memory foam mattresses, and the kitchen was extremely well equipped.
There is a small supermarket over the road, and a restaurant 20 m away with pastries, pizzas, paninis,
pasta and gelato- somewhere to sit or just to supply a takeaway.
