Silvia is lovely. She was very accommodating when I needed to change my travels plans at the last minute and took her time to give me a few recommendations. The location of the apartment could not be better: close to all of the important sites of the historic city centre and the station, but likewise close to the water. The only downside I can note is that the centre was loud at night when I stayed in June. But this would be true whether in Silvia's home or elsewhere. Her street is as quiet as they come. The flat is elegantly furnished, quite spacious, and the tile floor is marvelous. The linens were immaculate! For those with some mobility difficulties: note that the bathroom is on the second floor of the apartment. Grazie, Silvia!
