Anna is a wonderful host! We were traveling with our baby and she had toys and a crib ready for him. So thoughtful! The communication was wonderful throughout. The apartment is clean and well equipped as described. It is about a 20 minute walk from the beginning of the historic center and another 10 minutes to the Duomo. However, it is a very easy and pleasant walk. One day we even walked along the river and that was lovely, too. There is a dedicated parking spot but just a heads up it can be a tight squeeze for bigger cars. We were driving a Hyundai Santa Fe and it fit but with very little wiggle room. Not a problem at all for us because we really appreciated the parking, just something to know if you have a bigger car. I highly recommend this property.
