The apartment had some pros and cons. Overall I would not stay there again.
Pros: great location, cozy decor, elevator, and washing machine.
Cons: very bare kitchen basics, much smaller than it looks - not a 1 bedroom, but a studio with a sofa bed. Washing machine, but no dryer. Lots of steep steps inside apartment that made going to the bathroom at night hazardous. A night light could help. There were 4 of us, so it would be much better for 2.
From the listing I thought Francesca lived in the apartment, as it did look cute and lived in. She doesn't live there, and did not meet us. She seemed to have a list of people she calls who show up with keys, spend 5 minutes with you and leave. Our greeter was nice, but didn't know the neighborhood. The only time Francesca seemed interested in contacting me was to make sure I followed a long list of rules about the garbage in the apartment
