Franco is an amazing host and makes you feel welcomed from the moment you arrive. The support continues throughout the stay and overall is first rate. The apartment is stunning in both design and amenities. Location is perfect - just steps away from everywhere you want to be and anything you might need. You are in the heart of a very active neighborhood, and as others have stated there is definitely street noise, and it occurs late at night - but it really was not problematic. We stayed at the apartment during a very hot time in Europe - and had challenges with getting all areas of the apartment cool and at times suffered power outages in the apartment. We raised the concern to the host who was very understanding and I am confident will address the issue going forward.
