The appartment is just as described, a bit far from all sightseeings but easily accessable by buses. We stayed for 5 nights and found this very suitable for our visit. Communication with Alessandro was quick and smooth and at the building we were met by Alberto who helped us settle in.
On our first night we ate at one of the restaurants that was recommended by the hosts and it was the worst dinner of our entire trip. This made us think that as it is a company that is letting this and other appartments, maybe they have an affiliation with some restaurants and the recommendations aren't quite as genuine.
A couple of places near the appartment we could full heartedly recommend were Faro for breakfast and Seven e Eleven for cocktails (and dinner).
