I stayed at Giuseppe's place near Quattro Canti for a month and loved it. The alleyway and apartment are extremely quiet but right around the corner is a very lively street where you find just about anything you need. It was quite warm at times in the city but the a/c units work great when you need them. Giuseppe is a great host and responds very quickly if you need any help at all. Whether you stay for a few days or a few weeks, I'd definitely recommend Giuseppe's apartment.
