I had an enjoyable stay at Sant’aloy. Davide, Alessandra, and their friend Luciana, picked me up from the airport and welcomed me warmly. I was really touched by their thoughtfulness; they had stocked some food, snacks and also gave me a nice bottle of red wine. They even went and brought me eggs, when I wanted to go to the supermarket to get some myself. They are very accommodating and lovely people. Grazie mille!
The house was very clean and spacious. It’s on a quiet street for pedestrians but I felt very safe walking back to the house a few times, as late as 11 p.m. The wifi was good which was key for me since I had to work in the evenings. The location was ideal for me as I was there for work at the UN and wanted to be close to my other colleagues who were staying in town (ferry side). From the house, the ferry stop at the port is just 3-5 minutes walk down the road. There are some nice restaurants at the port too. The big shops on Corso Umberto and Corso Roma are about 10 minutes walk.
