On the positive side, the apartment is in a great location for sure. Simone was responsive and accommodating and his girlfriend who met us and gave us the keys was very kind. They also supplied us with an extra set of keys as we requested.
Cons are: There is a fun piazza below however it can get very noisy at night. The apartment is up many flights of stairs that wind through 2 buildings, the last two flights being very steep. The apartment is pretty clean although with small rooms and kind of dark due to the limited windows.
Overall it is fine for a few days but the one thing that really is unacceptable are the bath towels. They were so cheap that the material from the towels came off when you're drying yourself with them and you are left with lint/towel material all over your body and everywhere. It was a disaster, really. My friend and I ended up drying off with the hand towels instead.
