It was really nice to stay at Milco's apartment. His wife Silvia was there to receive us and it was sweet of them to have a bottle of wine waiting to welcome us. The apartment is situated in a very beautiful and quiet neighbourhood with a supermarket nearby, a pharmacy, a pizzeria cum bakery, a meat and cheese store and a bank. Its just a 10 minute bus ride to the city center (Duomo) . We traveled with 2 children and it was spacious for all of us with separate bedrooms and bathrooms. There is also a nice fresh vegetable store almost next door run by an Italian couple called Dominico and Federika. They were really nice and helpful. They have some excellent "home style" spaghetti sauce and vegetables that helped us cook some fantastic dinners - a must visit to shop for your fresh dinners.
