The apartment is exactly as described. Even though on the ground floor on a very busy street, the place is amazingly quiet thanks to soundproof windows. Also, the mattress on our bed was extremely comfortable — I slept better than at home. The municipal carpark behind the building was full when we arrived at about 6pm and we had to park our car on a street about a 10 minute walk away, where we left it for 3 nights with no problems.
We did a bit of cooking in the well-equipped kitchen; however since it was winter we didn’t open windows and the smell of our vegetable pasta sauce lingered through the night in the tightly-sealed flat. (So find out how to turn on the extractor fan before using the stove.)
Communication with Salvatore was excellent; he has put a lot of effort to into welcoming guests. We highly recommend this apartment.
