Natascia and her husband Raphaele are lovely people, friendly and accommodating. (Both of them work in the family's restaurant around the corner, where we can recommend the pizza.) The apartment was clean and comfortable--including the extra sofa bed, which I slept on. Parking was very tight, but Raphaele kindly moved his own car to give us the larger space. (The second day we found free street parking.) The apartment is not on the street, but there was some noise from workers and residents in the courtyard and from footsteps in the apartment above, though not enough to keep us awake. If you plan on cooking,, you'll need to bring your own basic supplies such as oil and vinegar, sugar, cooking and slicing knives, and other things we have come to expect from airbnb apartments. There's a grocery store just down the street, and a large supermarket a few blocks away. The Citta Alta is about a half hour's walk. (We didn't bother to check out buses or the funicular.) You'll probably need to unplug a lamp or something to charge your devices.
