My boyfriend and I recently stayed at Silvia's wonderful apartment (October 2014) and I can honestly say, it was fantastic!
Silvia met us at the apartment (an easy 10 min walk from the train station) and was so friendly and welcoming. She was more than happy to give us information about the local area and places to see/visit.
The apartment has been recently refurbished and is all brand new and extremely clean and a great size! I would say that it was even better than the photos! We felt at home straightaway. The little extra touches, such as bottled water, tea and coffee, hair dryer and straighteners were really thoughtful and most appreciated.
The location and the neighbourhood was also perfect - it felt very safe and it was extremely close to everything you needed, as well as the main sights. I would say about a 10 min walk to the station, and a 5/10 minute walk to the main square/Duamo and some great restaurants/bars. There was also a great little cafe literally opposite the apartment where we went for breakfast....and plenty more down the same street.

There's wifi in the apartment that was also really handy if we wanted to quickly check something online.

We checked out at 10am, but Silvia allowed us to leave our suitcase in the apartment whilst we went for a little wander before catching the train later that afternoon, which was great.

I would 100% recommend to stay at this apartment - perfect location and perfect host.
