The apartment was easy to find, if a bit of a walk from the train station. The building was quiet, although there was a bit of road noise from a busy nearby street. It's furnished, and also has plates and utensils, so we could make our own meals occasionally.

It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the apartment to the old city center, which can get a bit old after a few days. However, the distance means that the apartment is surrounded by locals, not other tourists, and there's a nice square just a block or two away to people watch away from the crowds.

Chiara was a great host, and was accommodating to our arrival and departure schedule, as well as helping us find things like laundry and grocery stores in the neighborhood. During our two-week stay, she was easy to contact when we needed to, but otherwise left us to ourselves.
