The Duomo is only 1/2 block away, and the views are amazing! The apartment is private and quiet, although one has to expect some church bells in that location. The apartment was nice and warm, even in November, and it's very convenient to have a clothes washer. Beware if you have a car that parking is a nightmare, so it would be best to reserve one of the local garages in advance. There are plenty of food options nearby, including organic gelato and a nice juice cart.
