This place is in a nice quite neighborhood with everything you need close by. It is a bit out of the way but well connected via public transportation for the major tourist sites. Other than getting out to the sites, you would not need to leave the neighborhood to get excellent food, groceries, parks, and amazing Gelato right across the street. We had several small children, so logistics of getting up and down the stairs/small elevator were frustrating, but that's just how it is with kids. The apartment itself has all you can realistically ask for in an urban European flat. The kitchen and tools do fine for basic cooking. HUGE plus is the Aircon. This was a great value overall for the size, condition, and location. Excellent response and service from the host, and clear policies, instructions, etc on all aspects of the stay.
