Giovanni is the perfect host! He really went out of his way to help us with anything and everything we needed including arranging taxis, providing us with restaurant recommendations and bus times. Communication was excellent.
The apartment is clean, spacious and beautifully decorated throughout. It’s equipped with everything you need including a really comply bed. An Italian welcome pack was a lovely touch.
One thing to note is the apartment is quite dark. This is typical of the style of building in the area but if you’re looking for light and airy this may not be the place for you. There is a lovely courtyard off the bedroom though that gets sun in the early afternoon. And the dark does mean it stays cool and the bedroom is nice and dark for sleeping. So it depends what you’re looking for.
Unfortunately there is a carpenters workshop right next door. This means there can often be quite significant noise disruption between 9am-7pm on weekdays (not during siesta time). If you are an early riser and happy to spend the day exploring you’ll be fine but if you plan on spending quiet time in the apartment this may not be the place for you.
Shame about the noise as it would be a lovely apartment with a perfect host if it wasn’t for this.
