This three-story apartment is located in a great little neighbourhood - Isola - that many writers/books talk about as trendy and up-and-coming. It was a 10 minute walk to get to the lovely shopping district, and there were several restaurant options within walking distance and there are both train and metro stations within minutes.
The apartment was quite spacious and with three beds in the loft and our bedroom in the bottom (3rd) level, it was perfect for my husband, three kids and I. The narrow spiral staircase was both character-building and creaky; there is a light switch in the loft area that illuminates several soft lights that make navigating the stairs at night easier.
Guilia, Annalisa's daughter, greeted us upon arrival and provided maps and tourist information which was quite helpful. For people/families without mobility issues, I would highly recommend this location. But seeing as both sleeping areas require using the stairs (and the toilet is on the main floor) caution those who cannot easily do stairs.
