The flat is in an absolutely amazing location - it's in the centre of the old town, within a 10 - 15 minute leisurely walk of almost all of the main piazzas and sites and in the heart of a bustling area of restaurants and bars, yet the apartment is still quiet and peaceful. We couldn't have been happier with the location - if your goal is sight seeing and soaking up the atmosphere of the city then this is a fantastic spot.
This was especially useful as we visited in the middle of August, so it meant we could wake up early, visit sites, and then easily come back to the flat in the early afternoon for a siesta/nap when the city was too hot. The air con, in both the bedroom and the living room, plus the shutters on the windows, and the tiled floors were also really useful and made the space very cool and comfortable in the heat.
The flat is spacious and has lots of lovely quaint touches like the fresco in the bedroom, high ceilings, and some of the older pieces of furniture.
There's also a good amount of storage space to help you keep yourself organised, and lots of dishes etc for the kitchen/dining area. There are also lots of useful amenities such as a hairdryer, washing machine, and a very basic iron and ironing board.
Make sure you read all the information Peitro sends in the 48 hours before you arrive very carefully such as where to collect the keys from and how to switch on the boiler - we were travelling and unable to access wifi which created a lot of complications.
I'd also recommend bringing an extension lead if there are more than 2 of you staying or you have lots of appliances - this is an old property so doesn't have a lot of plugs like in a more modern property.
The property is also on the first floor (the building has a lift but you need a key), and it is a shower over the bath, so for those with mobility issues this could be a little difficult.
Pietro was also very helpful and quick with communication.
Would definitely recommend for sightseers!
