We were a family of 8 including my four step kids (17-27), my two year old and elderly in-laws. The apartment worked great for us. It was a fun location and neighborhood, lively and close to everything. We likened it to the East Village in NYC if that means anything to you. The steps leading to the apartment are shabby and filled with daytime drinkers. These folks hung out all day on the steps and left garbage and empty broken bottles. They NEVER bothered us and we did not find them dangerous but more of a nuisance. Otherwise, the apartment was fantastic and Elisabetta was responsive and helpful. She suggested the best local gelato and restaurants and the suggestions were spot on. We had TWO wonderful last meals at one of the places she suggested. We will recommend this apartment to others.
