The unit is uncluttered, squeaky clean, modern with a small well equipped kitchen, big white bath towels, a small comfy sofa, with interesting art from local artists on the walls, and plenty of hangers and drawers for unloading suitcases, plus a big drying rack if you do any laundry in the sink. After 10:30PM it was quiet and the apartment was in an sturdy old building.
Because of the high ceilings the two flights of steps seemed especially long. The narrow street accommodated pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles, cars and trucks and had narrow sidewalks which were often crowded, making foot travel slow and a bit scary. This was true of many of the streets in the area however. Younger people probably would think nothing of the congestion or the long stairs. (We are in our 80's)
Gabriele was a joy, answering queries quickly, and helpfully calling a cab for us when we left for the airport. We felt safe and very much at home for the nine days we were there.
