Let me start by saying we stayed in many places while we were in Europe and this was one our favorites. Carlo greeted us as we stepped out of the taxi (even though we really could have walked from train station). He was so nice and helpful. He had maps for us and recommendations on where to go, eat, and how to get around. The location was perfect. We walked everywhere. If you need to grab a taxi, it is a 3 minute walk to the train station, but it really isn't necessary.
