The descriptions and photos are very accurate-the apartment is huge and filled with unique architectural features and beautiful art. It feels like an authentic "old world" Italian home and gave 5 of us a lot of room to spread out. The kitchen is big and fully furnished with new stove/fridge and small dishwasher. Location is GREAT; beautiful view, easy to walk to all major attractions/neighborhoods. Three reasons for 4star rating: The antique furniture in the living room was worn and dingy and couches/pillows are generally in need of cleaning/updating; there are plumbing issues to be addressed. We had an issue with bathroom that was most convenient to use & had the biggest shower, so that was out of commission for 6 of 8 days. The property manager tried to fix it but it required a professional plumber who didn't come while we were there. Lastly, I strongly recommend bringing a C02/smoke detector. The location and the amount of space made these few little issues well worth it.
