Our stay at Tommaso's apartment was overall pleasant sans a few minor problems. Tommaso was very nice and easy to talk to. The apartment is in a great location, close to the train station and a food market that is convenient for both eating out and getting groceries. The apartment was kept clean and as shown in the pictures. Keep in mind that as mentioned, the living quarters with the bathroom upstairs have a low ceiling, and the staircase with no railing can be a little shaky.
When we arrived, Tommaso's mom warmly greeted us, but she does not speak too much English. Just make *sure* that you were shown how to open the lock at the building entrance -the keys are very tricky, it takes a specific way to open -or else you might get locked out of your apartment in the rain.
During our stay, Tommaso talked about replacing the washing machine -it is not working in current condition, the clothes were not spinning at all. Unless your laundry need is just soaking your clothes, this machine is not going to be much help.
