The apartment itself was pretty much as listed. The building is very close to Duomo, that could be a good or bad thing depending on your preference for noise/crowds. That will come with the location. Had a few issues with the communication, needed the AC which the apartment is listed as having for my mother who was recovering from an illness, which was met with a prickly response about not needing the air. Windows obviously will let in a lot of mosquitos this time of year. Wouldn't stay here again but could work for some people wanting to be in the middle of the action.
