This apartment was quite lovely and spacious. The bedroom area is a loft with spiral staircase leading up. The views of the Duomo was breathtaking. Literally open the windows and look out. The location is in the heart and prime of many sightseeing locations with easy walking distance. Being that it’s overlooking the Duomo the courtyard square can be very busy and loud even at night. Simply closing the windows and wood shutters helps reduce the street noise. The apartment and building was very stylish and expensive looking and feel. I would recommend booking if you want to be in the center of everything and especially if on a short stay.
