My husband and I spent an extended period of time at this beautiful apartment and loved every moment. We would have stayed longer if the schedule permitted. We had more than enough space for the two of us and could have comfortably entertained guests. The pull-out sofa is in the living room/dining area and the room has a door that can be closed, making it private from the master bedroom. We used the loft for storage of our bags and the bathroom is updated and very functional. We bought fresh groceries at Mercato Centrale (two blocks away) and were able to cook with ease using the provided pots/pans/dishes/spices. I enjoyed the security of the building and locked front door and buzzer system. Across the street is an amazing restaurant, Garga, for traditional Italian cuisine and down the street is La Divina Enoteca for small plates or to pick up a bottle of wine. We found both of these establishments to be wonderful additions to our stay. We were able to walk to all major attractions in about 10 minutes, including the train station and Duomo. As for the host of the apartment, she couldn't be more delightful. She was a pleasure to work with and is more than hospitable. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would definitely stay at her property again.
