As a host, Alessandro was supurb. He took a few hours out of his day to pick us up from the train station and drive us to the apartment. On the way, he pointed out places to eat (MeAT was great, as was Pizza 23, and the bakery was wonderful) and suggested places to visit. At the apartment, he graciously took time to explain how we could get around via public transport, which was invaluable as the apartment is a fair distance from the city and its attractions (if staying here for a few days or more, we would suggest buying a 7 day travel pass [€24pp] as getting to the city entails taking a bus/tram each way). The apartment itself is as advertised, however, as other reviews have noted, a few elements detracted from our stay, including the bed (which was hard and uncomfortable on one side), the traffic noise (ear plugs are recommended), and a kitchen that -while functional - was missing some basics, such as knives (for chopping/dinner) and extra tea towels. The single element induction hotplate also made cooking a meal challenging, while we also had to buy some essentials, such as toilet paper. Overall, it was affordable accomodation, which was good if you want to eat out at every meal, and which could be improved with a little more attention to the necessities.
