The apartment was very Italian. The location was great. You can walk to everything and there are shops and restaurants right downstairs. The train is also close by. The apartment is small so it is best for 2 people. There is a pull out sofa in the kitchen/living area if you have another person. The locks on the doors are a little tricky to open so make sure you find out how to get in before the host leaves. There is a homeless guy that sits outside unit who is there no matter what time it is. He seemed harmless. Claudia is very responsive to any questions if you call or email.
