Stay here! Dino is a great host and his apartment offers and amazing value for money.
Things that we liked:
-Spacious - the apartment is quite large, with tall ceilings, 3 big bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
-Location - close to transport (right next to the "Claudio" bus station and a 12 minute walk to the metro) and a fairly large grocery store across the street. Two playgrounds for the kids within an 8 minute walk. Several restaurants/bars nearby.
-Small touches - Dino left fresh fruit and a few supplies in the fridge for us, which was very much appreciated.
-Cleanliness - the whole apartment was very clean.
-Supplies - lots of plates, cutlery, pots and pans, extra condiments, etc. Everything that you would need.
-Easy access - on the ground floor; you only have to climb 7-8 steps to get to the front door. Nice to not have to lug things up many flights of stairs or wait for old/slow elevators.
Things that could have been better:
-Noise - there was some street noise, especially early in the morning (7-9am) but hey, you're staying in the city and it's to be expected if you want to be in the middle of things.
Highly recommended. Thank you Dino!
