I had a fantastic time at Riccardo's flat. It really does have an incredible balcony with views of the Duomo - the photos don't do it justice! I sat out there each evening and enjoyed the bells. The bells stopped ringing during the night so there was no noise issue. Nearby there is a fantastic supermarket called Sapori and Dintorni if you want to cook your own meals. The flat is secure within an apartment building and has a lift. Bathroom was lovely and clean. There was aircon. Easy to walk to the train station and within the central sight-seeing area.
