The location of this apartment is EXCELLENT. Niccolo is a wonderful communicator. Prior to our arrival he gave us good information about parking and where to eat. He was away from town during our visit and provided us with information as needed. His colleague who checked us in tried, but was not an effective communicator. That said, the apartment was a bit run down, the floors were a bit dirty, the bath is very small, and there was an animal oder which I'm sure a dog lover would not have noticed. In fairness, we stayed there during one of the hottest days of the year, which may have contributed to the negatives. In sum, if location is number one for you, this is a good choice.
