This apartment was a great way to finish off our trip to Italy which has been very hot and busy. With the pool and the balcony/terrace we were able to relax a bit. The pool is communal but we rarely saw anyone else in it, and we always had it to ourselves (midweek stay, weekend might be different) and there's plenty of loungers if you wanted to use one. the Balcony is great and very spacious. The location is good depending on what you're after. it's very close to the canal which is a pretty buzzing area for food and drink which was great in an evening but isn't too close to the centre. there's a metro station about ten minutes away though and that'll get you around the city fine. You probably could walk into the centre a bit more in the cooler months but it was 36+ degrees and we didn't fancy a 30 minute walk. the nearest metro station line can take you straight to the Centrale train station and the airport express trains. The TV is big with a great spacious couch which is rare for inner city apartments. The aircon is delivered via the floor. The apartment building itself is very well maintained, the pool is clean and we saw it being cleaned twice. there's a cute little garden round the back with fruit and veg growing. Filippo's communication was great, very quick to respond and informative, was on hand throughout checkin. Also the balcony is quite private as you're on the 8th (out of 9th) floor so you're not really overlooked. The bathroom was great, really stylish and well decorated with a double shower, and a good shower at that which can be hard to come by sometimes. Also the noise levels are great, very quiet. There were a few things lacking. The apartment was nice, modern and clean but lacked some of the personal charm I've seen in other AirBnBs I've stayed at. for example a welcome book with some recommendations on what to see and do, or where to eat. just to give it that personal touch, instead it was very minimalistic. Also, the aircon was delivered via the floor, but there was no way for us to control this, although Filippo did say he would show me via facetime if he wished. Also, there are many many lightswitches, atleast 12 maybe more, for an open plan apartment. I get that this was to make it seem modern and smart but I found this more annoying that nice, spending time on the way out flicking loads of switches trying to figure out which ones turned off which lights which were scattered around the apartment. I just don't think it's necessary. This isn't a major thing just a bug bear. Also some of the switches seem to do nothing at all. This comes back to personal touches, ahouse manual or welcome book would have been nice to explain these things. The only other issue (and this is a personal preference so it may be fine for you) is that the bed was pretty hard and I struggled to sleep. But like I said, that's personal preference. Despite a few issues, I would recommend this place. I didn't think I'd use the pool as I don't like communal ones as much but when we got there and it was so ridiculously hot it was so inviting and seeing that it was properly maintained was great.
