Riccardo’s place was in an amazing location. It was a short walk from the train and also a short walk to the big sites. I booked his place with only 1 day notice and he got back to me very quickly.
I did not have time to do research like I normally do though. The 4 flights of stairs was pretty difficult for me (a very unfit American) after 20-30k steps in 35 C heat. I probably would’ve opted for something with less stairs if I had time to research. But that’s my problem, not his.
The bedroom was air conditioned with a big comfy bed. It was nice to have a cold place to sleep after the crazy hot days. The rest of the apartment was too warm for comfort in the late afternoon heat.
The apartment also had a rooftop terrace with a pretty good view of a church.
All in all, a great place to stay.
