Stefano was a great host and was waiting in the apartment to greet us when we arrived. We had a lot of luggage and it took us a couple of trips to get it all upstairs to the apartment, but Stefano kindly helped us carry it up. The climb up was definitely worth it though. The apartment was beautifully furnished and well air conditioned made it a welcome retreat from the outside heat. The location is great - within walking distance from the train station and also the main sites in the city center, yet away from the crowds.
