The location of the apartment was right in the middle of the shopping area so lots to do in the area. The apartment is very roomy and large so we had plenty of space, we were 6 adults. Something to keep in mind when renting this apartment is that the apartment is up 4 flights of steps. This was particularly difficult since we were traveling with elderly people. ALso the elevator is extremely small and old, typical in Italy, but I didn't know this before I went since I had never been in Europe. My mother is claustrophobic so it was a huge challenge, the going up and down to the apartment. It would be difficult for handicapped visitors. The washer was not working right, so we hand washed a few items. It was well equipped with a large drying rack, iron and ironing board. The apartment was clean, very roomy and the location could not be better.
