The place is really very central, next to the Duomo and opposite of a library with a café with a beautiful view. The apartment is a lot more spacious than we expected. We supposed the sofa under the stairs is the bedsofa (which is next to the bathroom and the other bedrooms) for the 5th (and possibly 6th) person, but this is not the case. So if you are more than 4 persons, you will use the nice red living room as a bedroom. Communication with Mariecloude was always prompt. When we had problems with the hot water on the first morning she offered to come right away but then we could fix it ourselves.
