The apartment was wonderful! Pretty spacious and tastefully decorated. The place is in a lively area -- you can hear the crowds on the street on a Saturday night, even though you're up about five floors -- but that wasn't a problem for us. The balcony was great -- we loved having breakfast out there in the mornings.

Our only issue was communication abut arrival. We didn't have a working phone, so we were reliant on email and also tried to make calls via pay phones. It was a bit unclear as to when/where we would be meeting Daniele to get the keys. He ended up sending his friend/associate to show us to the apt. She spoke Italian and Spanish, but unfortunately no English. I (Tara) had only a very limited grasp of Italian, but thankfully Chloe knows Spanish, so we were able to get by, and she showed us the place.

Communication issues aside, once we were at the apartment, everything was great. :)
