The apartment is STUNNING, especially if you appreciate interior design. Fornasetti wallpaper, beautiful antiques, it's a great place. It's also VERY central with very easy free street parking if you're rending a car. The noise in the living room people mentioned is rather quiet and you can't hear it in the bedroom. However, we stayed there 4/19 and 4/20 and there is construction in the apartment upstairs which will wake you up at 7am and continue through the day. If you're up and about early or are spending the entire day out at the beaches etc it's not a concern but please check with host prior to booking to make sure noise has stopped. Still giving it 5 stars but our particular stay was affected by this.
