Marco was an excellent host, always available for help and inquiries. The apartment was in a wonderful area, away from the main tourist track and near the beautiful Piazza di Santo Spirito. It was equipped with a modern kitchen, and a tiny but functional bathroom. I stayed for a month while I was studying Italian. To me, one drawback to the apartment was the lack of comfort. Of course, this might be irrelevant to visitors who plan to go out most of the time. There was nowhere comfortable to sit other than in the bedroom. The lounge room contained only a fold-up bed, no coffee table, and no easy chair with arms. There was also nowhere I could sit comfortably with my computer, as the kitchen table was about 8 cm higher than a normal desk-height table. Again, this might not worry many people.
