Francesca is a very responsive host & communication was very quick. We stayed in the apartment for 3 nights & here are some pros & cons.
Pros:
Great location & walking distance to all sites. Great area for restaurants & bars.
The building has an elevator which is hard to find in old buildings in Europe.
The living room is a nice size & comfortable.
The AC works very well in cooling the apartment( which we needed because we were there during a heatwave). The only issue was there was a fairly loud ringing like sound emanating from near the AC unit continuously even when the unit was off
There is plenty of storage in the living room & bedroom
The bed is very comfortable.
The WiFi works well
Cons:
The Kitchen is very small with no counter space. The Nespresso coffeemaker, the electric kettle & toaster sit on a counter under the stovetop. This means you have to crouch down to make coffee or heat water. There is no microwave or oven. You cannot really use this kitchen to cook or reheat food except on the stove. If we had stayed longer than 3 days we would have liked to have gone to the market & either cooked or brought in food at least 1 night.
The bathroom is long & narrow. The shower is a nice size but the hot water is inconsistent. Goes from too hot to cold. There is a small washer in the bathroom but you have to hang clothes outside the bathroom window using a pulley clothesline. It did not effect our stay but if you were staying longer then you may have to resort to drying clothes inside the apartment.
Francesca can arrange for airport pickup & drop offs through a limo company. We used them for the return trip & it was very convenient.
