The apartment was nice, new, modern and very clean. I think the area was safe but it certainly was well located, next to the train station, and a 15 minute walk to old town.
We were late arriving (airflight delays) so had some difficulty entering as there was no one there. We buzzed a neighboring apartment who was nice enough to call Francesco for us. He arranged for somebody to let us in who arrived in about 10 minutes.
The 3 flights of stairs up (we were pre-warned) was not easy... we were all out of breath ... italian ceiling heights are very tall, not like in north america, so 3 flights converted to 87 stairs!
The listing advertised wi-fi, important to us and a main criteria for selection, and it was not available.
