It was an absolute pleasure staying in the apartment :-). Yes the stairs were quite a bit, but our host helped us carry our bags up and everything was wonderful in the apartment. the best part was the location. It was walking distance from everything; no need to worry about taxis or being late in the night. Also, the communication from Ilaria was fantastic. Right from booking, till the end, she was just a message away, and we had absolute peace of mind..
