We had a wonderful time staying in Benedetta's apartment. She was wonderful at communicating with us, setting up our pick up at the airport, and even having someone meet us at the apartment to explain everything to us and give us some local tips since she was out of town. We loved the area because it was a more local area (i.e.not full of tourists), but there were still plenty of wonderful places to eat. Freshly made orange juice at a cafe across the street was amazing. They also had the usual cappuccinos and pastries for a quick bite before heading out. Found several gluten free restaurant options in walking distance as well. Each of our rooms had their own bathrooms which was super helpful ( and rare) as there were six of us traveling. There is public transport nearby as well. If you want to be in the middle of the tourist spots, this may not be the location for you. But if you want to be able to enjoy all the tourist spots and come back to a more relaxed local area, this is perfect!!
