The apartment is large for a studio, bright and actually looks better than in pictures, as it has been further upgraded with a microwave, De Longhi / Nespresso coffee maker, nicer chairs, larger TV and a rug, which the photos do not show. It is very tastefully furnished and decorated and is very clean. It has everything that you could possibly need during your stay, including the abundance of nice and soft white towels. There are a few nice oil paintings on the walls. The bed is wide and comfortable, with nice plump pillows and tasteful bed linen. There is plenty of storage space in the apartment. All fixtures and fittings are of very good quality, from the doors and windows with electric blinds, to the furniture and appliances (fridge-freezer, gas hob with electric oven and extractor fan, dishwasher, washer/dryer, air-con...). We were very impressed by the hospitality of our hosts. They recommended places to visit and the best restaurants. They also left a cold water, milk, coffee pods and biscuits in the kitchen for us, which we were very touched by. The apartment is on the sixth floor (with a lift) of a building with nice and clean entrance hall done in marble and decorated with oil paintings. Literally a few steps from the entrance is a smallish neighbourhood supermarket with a very good choice of every day products. The whole area feels very safe and is probably one of the best areas of the city, with some stunning buildings. It is fairly close to the city centre, yet far enough from all the hustle and bustle of the touristy parts of the city. The apartment itself is on a quiet road and yet just a five minutes away from the busy yet nice roads with many shops, restaurants and transport links to the rest of the city. We did not use the public transport though and we enjoyed instead walking to the city centre and to all the attractions on foot in less than 30 minutes. Secure indoor parking is available in the block just behind the apartment. We had our breakfast and morning coffees in the neighbourhood cafes. For dinner we went to one of the restaurants that Mr Zari recommended, Trattoria Caprese in Via Marghera, where we enjoyed some lovely food and the first class Italian hospitality in an informal setting and very popular by local residents. On the same road is also a well known ice cream shop with a fantastic choice of deserts. We are very grateful to Mr Zari and his family for making our short stay in their beautiful city very special. We cordially recommend them and this lovely apartment and we hope to come back again in the near future.
