This AirBnB is a clean, efficient apartment in a great location.
The location is worth noting. For us, it is nice to be able to get away from the crowds. At the end of the day, you do just that, walk just a very short distance from the Duomo and on the way leave the crowds behind. It is the same in the morning of course. Walk out the door and you’re not immediately in a crowd. It is a relaxing, calming way to start and end the day. In addition, the apartment is only one floor up, very much appreciated with luggage.
First impression upon entering is how neat and clean it is. There are plenty of dishes and silverware. There is a window out onto the street from which you can see the Duomo and windows on the other side looking onto private space, one with a nice little container garden to provide color. The 2nd bedroom was very welcome as a place to keep our luggage and it acted as a dressing room and additional closet space as there were just two of us.
There are two things we wish to note that, for us, would have improved the experience. They might not matter to anyone else. First, it is a small kitchen, no surprise there, with a kettle and a very much appreciated drip coffee machine. There was a small amount of coffee for the machine. Being big coffee drinkers we bought more and left the remainder. There is also a kettle. That’s where the compromise enters the picture. There is not room for a toaster, something that we generally use each morning and often again later in the day. So for us, perhaps not for others, this was a concern. The second thing is the lack of light over the couch. I like to read in the evening, a guide book, or an actual paper book or magazine, and for that a light over the couch would have been appreciated. Again, small things that matter to us, perhaps not to most others.
It is a nice little apartment, in a great location with a 2nd bedroom which provides versatility. Book it and enjoy your stay!
