Alessandro is a very open and hospitable host. He provided us with both the background of major sights, and also sent a very comprehensive list of restaurants.

Everything was just perfect. The appartment itself shifted our expectations. Located in the downtown (15 minutes from the Duomo on foot), it is surrounded by lovely restaurants. We used the metro only twice during the trip, to reach distant locations.

The apartment is a kind of a classic italian downtown flat in an old but well-cared-for building with an inner yard and lovely view on the garden from the balcony.
