This place is in a very safe location, close to everything but in a very residential area. There is a taxi stand right by some parking space nearby. There is also a wonderful open air farmer's market like 2 to 3 blocks from there at Metauro Street - I think it only operates on weekdays and the fruits and vegetables are very fresh and it's super inexpensive. There's a cafe across the apt called Aprodite, only seems to be opened weekdays and there's also a restaurant, Fiori di Zucca diagonally across, which is fantastic - opens daily it seems. No shampoo, conditioner was provided so bring your own. If you have a lot of luggage, be careful when you first enter as there are stairs right as you enter, a bit to the left of the entrance upon entering. There are mirrors covering an entire wall in the bedrooms which may be uncomfortable for some people. A good perk was the small washing machine in the larger bathroom. The TV only has Italian channels and not all work, but still good if you want to practice your Italian listening skills. I recommend this place. Enjoy!
