This place is the perfect mix of staying at a friend's beautiful home while being within walking distance to every single site the city has to offer. When I first booked the place I thought we would need to take cabs or bikes some places over a kilometer away, but the area is so spectacular you can walk kilometers without even realizing it! (We averaged just under 8 miles a day!)
Giulio was a wonderful host. He greeted us at a late hour (due to our flight arrival), gave us all the instructions we needed, then left us on our own. He provided us with a wonderful list of local places he personally recommended too.
It was amazing how well the windows kept out the sound! The street below was really hopping when we arrived on a Saturday night, and we could only hear it if we tried. The beds were super comfortable. If you are sensitive to light I recommend a sleeping mask because one of the rooms has an exterior light that is rather bright to sensitive sleepers (no fault of Giulios!).
There was a washing machine for clothes, but no drier. I think driers are rare in Italy which I appreciate, but hanging clothes out to dry in November is not the quickest way to get it done. The kitchen was adorable for cooking, although we didn't do any cooking. If you are planning on stocking up on groceries, know that the fridge is very small. That was ok for us, but if we had been there longer and more self sustaining then it would have been a little tough.
