Francesca's apartment is in a great location, close to train stations and easy to walk to many parts of the city. The 5th floor walkup was a bit strenuous, but we got used to it. There was one day where we had no water for several hours, and hadn't been told ahead of time that it would be happening, so we were not able to make coffee, brush our teeth, shower, etc. I wish that Francesca had given us notice that it was going to happen, so we could have prepared for it. Otherwise it was a great stay. The price was very expensive for a tiny apartment with no elevator, but it was design week, so everyone had high prices. The bar on the ground floor of the building was great - very quirky and fun. There was not a good grocery store that we could find, but perhaps others would have better luck. Overall we had very few complaints about the apartment, and loved the neighborhood.
