This was a great place to stay and came at the exact time in our lengthy trip that we needed a little TLC and comfort. It was a beautiful, spacious place just across the river from the hustle and bustle of city center--we walked to and from museums, restaurants and tourist attractions, but still got to experience the local, residential life. It was great! Not car friendly, but Francesco recommended a very safe, clean and nearby garage where we stowed away our car with no problems at all!
