The apartment is spacious and comfortable and the outside area is a nice place to sit and relax. As another reviewer mentioned there is a big step down into the kitchen which was challenging at times. Although there is no nearby Metro, there is a tram within 200 metres which you can take to Travestere station to catch a train to the airport. Restaurants, bars, supermarket, etc are all nearby yet the apartment is very quiet. When we had a problem with the electricity, Paolo was able to help us sort this out quickly. The plumbing needs some attention and it should be noted that the entrance to the shower cubicle is quite small for larger people (about 30cm wide). We enjoyed our stay here and recognise that some of the problems are due to this being a very old building with character.
