This apartment is in a great location. We loved being able to walk to so many places to eat or get an espresso. Plus it's convenient to get from here to many of the places we wanted to see, on foot or by metro. We never used a taxi but there were plenty around if we'd needed one. The apartment is spacious and very clean, although the bathroom and kitchen are tiny by U.S. standards and as one can expect in older places. Still quite workable for us. I really enjoyed the outdoor patio. Being on first floor was also a plus, although any noises on the floor of the apartment upstairs could be heard clearly. Our visit in early October was quiet in the neighborhood, but I imagine busier seasons could bring more noise.
Mirko was a great host. He provided us with multiple suggestions of places to go for dining and for sightseeing. He arranged a ride for us to the airport too, which was a great time saver and lovely convenience. Very responsive to communications, and checked in with us a couple of times to be sure all was well. I certainly recommend him as host.
