I've never gotten such a quick acceptance to my booking requests neither before nor after, which made me feel very welcome from the very first instant. Michele is a very cheerful and communicative host who although there is an elevator in his house fetched me from the entrance hall down-stairs and helped carrying my luggage.
He lives in a most strategic quarter just on the border between the historic city center and the reasonable supermarkets - one can actually see the cathedral from his balcony. The appartement is very spacious, not only is there an empty wardrobe in the clear guest-room, one has even an own cute kitchen. Michele gently managed to arrange an extraordinary appointment in the nexts sports-club for me, for our jont dinners he let me taste specialities of his home town, he even bought ingredients I needed and could not find in the next supermarket, he always explained the best route how to get to my next day's destination and finally he gave me a ride back to the station, making sure that I - absolutely overloaded - would safely get my train; he even helped carrying my bags from the car into the train.
