Paolo was kind enough to allow us to arrive a few hours early for check-in when our travel plans changed and was there to greet us. The apartment was very clean and bedrooms very spacious with plenty of storage. There was a street market just outside the apartment on Monday and Thursday which sold excellent food (and clothes, shoes etc) so we did not have to travel far for most of our supplies. The markets make a bit of noise setting up from about 6am or so, but that problem was solved with ear plugs. The little hamper of pasta, sauce, biscuits and beers that the host provided on arrival was very welcoming.
