This is such a wonderful neighbourhood with plenty of great places to eat (especially Mag La Pusterla around the corner), cool vintage shops and the beautiful San Lorenzo columns. The nightlife here was both surprisingly vibrant and peaceful, and it was lovely to go for walks here at night to take in the atmosphere and enjoy a late night gelato or a drink.
The area was not at all touristy, but it was in walking distance to Il Duomo with all its surrounding tourist sites, which was very practical since we only had a few days in the city.
Tommaso was a very nice and polite host. He was always quick to respond if we had any questions and was ready with recommendations for local restaurants.
