This apartment is absolutely lovely. The setting is spectacular. The apartment is spacious and comfortable. Lots of room to spread out. The balcony is amazing with a sitting area and a dining area, all overlooking the piazza. It's glorious! The kitchen is very well appointed with everything you could need for meal preparation. A few things to note: there's only a stove-top espresso pot, so some Americans may have to 'stretch' on coffee preparation. No microwave. The pastry shop on the ground floor is YUMMY! The hosts are lovely and very welcoming, and they are an encyclopedia of information about places to go and things to see. OH. The apartment is lovely because of the great views and overlook of the piazza. That also means it's a hike up to the 5th floor. Many many steps. If you forget something, it's a long way up & back down. But once you're up there, it's worth it.
