ciro was a very helpful and friendly host, also an earlier check-in was possible. ciro received us with fresh beverages an bread and gave us a lot of helpful suggestions about practical things. the appartement has everything you may need, a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, a free internet connection and,it's really a nice place to stay.the elevator is a nice extra when you arrive and leave with your luggage (and for tired sightseeing-feet too!) the view is really breathtaking,to see the dome as first and last thing every day is great, and you are in the very middle of everything, few minutes to walk to all main attractions and to the railway-station too.
true is that the rumours are existing, it's the price you pay for staying so centrally, but with eartips it's tolerable; for people with sensitive sleep I would'nt recommend it.
