This is a well run place with owners living there as well to make it easy for checkin. There is a lovely courtyard with garden and although apartment is a few flights up, there is a (very slow) elevator that can be used if you have a lot of baggage. It is close to restaurants, markets, shopping, port, etc. It can be quite noisy with music and activities from local businesses until late but closing the doors helps to mitigate this and it is very quiet once they close. Lucia was quick to respond to questions and provided assistance with directions and information. If you are new to driving in Italy, like us, driving to the apartment for bag drop off involves some tiny streets. No problem with the free parking on Vittorio, but ignore the men trying to waive you into spots who seem to be scamming people for $ to park. Overall it is a great place and for us it had an unexpected bonus of kittens in the courtyard that were born to the cats Lucia feeds. They provided hours of entertainment.
