Laura's place is very well situated in the city. Just enough to be away from the crowds, but within walking distance of all the sights. Laura was very helpful in telling us great places to eat and to get the best of everything. The apartment is lovely, spacious and comfortable. The kitchen had all of the appliances that we needed. Laura taught me how to make the steamed milk for our cappuccino, and even provided us with delicious, fresh milk. The only drawback was some noisy neighbors that were also vacationing, but Laura called their host and we didn't have the problem again. We left on a Sunday morning, and Laura was able to get us a taxi ride to the train station, last minute. We would go back to Laura's place in a second!
