Paolo’s apartment is in a great location close to the city centre and only 15 min walk to the Duomo. The public transport service is efficient, inexpensive and frequent, also only three min walk from the apartment (Tram and bus). One tip for tourists, if you buy travel tickets which enable use on all forms of transport including train and Metro , available from stations and tobacconists, then you MUST validate it on your first journey, the inspectors did check us, the fine is €35 if not stamped in the machine on the bus etc.
There are some really good restaurants , cafes, convenience stores very close to the apartment too, the best we found is only two min walk away, it’s called’Cook Window’ and looks abysmal from the outside but it’s great inside, great food and reasonable prices. Paolo’s apartment is secure with locked gate and a lift to the 7th floor, the views are amazing, one can see the Duomo from 3 sides, , balcony on two sides where you can sit with a coffee in the morning and soak in the view. We walked from the Duomo square twice in 15 min after an evening out and feel the whole area is safe, no worries at all. We can highly recommend Paolo’s apartment if you want a short break in a beautiful city.
