The apartment was beautiful. Very modern, well decorated (even had a remote controlled skylight that could open!). Communication was very easy with Cris and she met us as planned at the apartment. We had a minor problem with the shower fixture while we were there. The other manager who was working on the neighboring unit came to our rescue and made things very easy. The view from the terrace was incredible and it was truly almost impossible to be any closer to the Duom. It was about 50 meters (half a block) to the Duomo and you could see the unit from the Dome. We loved the apartment! We were very spoiled for the first 2 nights of our stay as we had no other neighbors except the manager, and it was super quiet and private.

That said- PLEASE NOTE that the terrace which is right off the living room/ front door is NOT a private terrace. There are 4 or 5 units which enter off of this terrace. More importantly, the terrace is also "shared" by the entire building. As THIS terrace has the best views, you should expect to have "visitors" outside of the living room. We did not have many during our stay, and they were very respectful. One group asked if it would be OK if they turned music on, and when we said "Not really. We have an early train in the morning." they eagerly said "We'll try to be quiet!" and they were. Unfortunately, the neighbors in the next apartment were not nearly as conscientious. It sounded as if they were having a party with lots of loud laughing and door slamming. All of that carried straight through the bedroom wall.
