Charming really is the right word for this apartment. Although there are a ton of stairs to go up and down (and we did this with a baby in a stroller!) we still wouldn't have changed staying here. The ambience and the location made up for all the stairs. :)

The place is very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Guido is a very thoughtful host and makes sure that his guests are comfortable. The neighborhood itself is delightful to walk around and enjoy, and doesn't feel touristy at all. There is a market in the plaza just a 5 minute walk away, open every morning, with fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, fish, cheeses, etc. as well as two other grocery stores just around the corner. Lots of fantastic restaurants, a specialty beer store, excellent pizza, and the best ever handcrafted gelato ever.
