The apartment was a large fully-functional apartment, with a great kitchen especially. Staples for cooking were there, which made it easy to start home living. Check-in was very easy, and I was met by the caretaker of the building, Massimo, and he explained everything about living there while giving us one set of keys. Beds are comfortable, and we liked that there was a wash machine for our week-long stay. We found that we needed another set of keys because of differing schedules, and we were able to obtain another set from Filippo. You can take the number 10 bus downtown every 20 minutes, or so. It's not very close to the touristy places, but easily accessible. The place wasn't the cleanest, especially the bathrooms, but we were happy for our time in this place.
