The apartment was just like the pictures, really lovely. The kitchen was well equipped, with a bottle of wine to greet us. We didn't meet Michele at the start but were shown around by his father, who was very helpful. Living room was spacious and comfortable and we loved the open courtyard where you can still see others in the living area. There was a lot of street noise from the surrounding bars, but that was to be expected being in the centre of the city. We only noticed some small things that were missing - ashtrays and extra pillows for instance. Wi-fi was not always working correctly, however Michele did try to fix this during our stay. My friends met him at this point and he was helpful and suggested places to visit. We also did the cooking class which was very good value for money and highly recommended. The chef also took us to the best gelateria after the class.
