The apartment is a little far away from the railway station and duomo, it may cost 25 minutes to walk there. But the apartment is located in a peaceful residential area, so it is very quiet and safe to live there. The host is very nice and has provided us with many useful and detailed information about the house and surrounded circumstances, besides, he is very glad to recommend fantastic restaurants for tourists if you have the needs. We tried a restaurant called toto recommended by him and did have a wonderful dinner with best beef steaks we have never had.
