The location of this unit was unbeatable! When putting together our itinerary there were places that were listed as under a minute walk and it was true! The apartment is very unique and hard to get a feel for the layout in photos but trust when I say that it is very large and would very comfortably accomodate a large family with plenty of privacy. It was very quiet but if you wanted to hear the music and activity down below all you have to do is open the windows. Michela was very accommodating and responded quickly to my (many) messages. We had some special requests because we traveled with a toddler and she helped arrange everything for us. Just a note that there is only a washer but that is pretty standard in Italy. The wifi was on the slower end but again, that seems to be what we have found in all places we've stayed in Italy so far. If you are a gourmet chef and are planning on cooking all of your meals, the kitchen probably isn't for you but it can handle the basics. All in all, a nice stay but if you are looking for the best, central location--this is it!
