This was a modest/simple, quaint, warm and fabulous apartment. It was very clean and organized. It had everything necessary for guests, from cookware, linens, to umbrellas and candles. We stayed for 1 week and were happy to also have empty drawers and a dresser to place our things in and feel at home. The apartment is very central and only a few blocks from the Duomo, 2 blocks from the river. Neighbhoorhood is safe but near a cluster of bars so sleep is pretty elusive between midnight and 3-4AM. There is no elevator but we did not mind. Guido was very helpful and very friendly. Prior to arrival he sent emails with train information etc.
