Bernardo's flat was great and the man himself was very welcoming. Checking-in was easy and checking out even easier. The flat was perfect for us (two friends traveling together, each in a separate bed) and the couch was an adequate bed even though we have sensitive backs! The bathroom was tinier than we expected but everything was clean and easy to use. We found extra blankets and towels when we needed them, and washed our clothes in the machine easily as soon as we found the foldable rack to hang them on. The kitchen was very nice and surprisingly well stocked in staples and condiments, even coffee! We never had to worry about anything, it was perfect for our week-long stay. Bernardo had tips for us when we needed them (for restaurants and gelato); the area is unbeatable - so central ! - for access to museums and monuments we had come to visit; the elevator spared our knees: in short, it was great. The only caveat for us was how loud the street is, even at night, with busking musicians, tourists (like us) still streaming down the streets, and the noises from street vendors closing up their wooden, wheeled shops with clacking noises in the evening. But that's the price to pay for such a central location, and the free Vivaldi concert we ended up having was very nice (much better than the young man belting out rock anthems the night before). Just be aware if you need lots of quiet for sleeping... Bernardo, thank you for everything! I'm sure we'll come back someday.
