Paola's apartment is perfect! She is an amazing host! We arrived earlier than check in time, Paola had the apartment ready when we arrived. She greeted us there with a bottle of wine. Everything in the apartment was explained, everything is new, she decorated it with love. She had a map to show where all the sites were, guide books also available. She has all the basic amenities needed when staying there. She's available if needed and always responds quickly. The apartment is within walking distance to all the major sites. The bus stop is close by, though we did not use the bus, we walked everywhere. There are many cafes and shops nearby also. My friend and I felt very safe staying there. At night, it can be noisy from the cafes below, but once the window is closed, you cannot hear anything. Paola even arranged a car to bring us to the airport. I can't say enough about this stay! I would highly recommend Paola's apartment!
