If you want to get truly Italian experience, go to Francesca's place. It is very beautiful and stylish. Located in a quiet and nice area. About 30 min walk from Duomo. The bedroom has a balcony on the inner side of the building which makes your stay even more cinematic! Francesca is a great host. She gave us very useful tips, one of which gave us one of the best pasta experience of our lives. Plus she has 2 funny cats. For us, catlovers, it was a big plus :)
