Elena and Philip were wonderful hosts. Their place is really beautiful and I love the decor. The room was great with tons of natural light, desk, and a really cozy corner bed. The guest bathroom is right next to the room in the hallway so you have your own private area of the apartment. They have a long, multi-door balcony that I bet is a great place to be in warmer months.
Elena gave me tons of maps and suggestions on places to check out during my brief stay. They were very kind. She laid out a nice Italian breakfast for me with a pastry from a local bakery. They opened up their home to me and I really appreciate the hospitality. Thanks!
