Historic building. British poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning lived right downstairs and wrote an important poem, "Casa Guidi Windows." The Browning apartment is open to visitors and worth a free visit. Our apartment was grand in a rather faded, seen better days sort of way. Part of its charm. We appreciated the two full baths. There is a usable terrace but it is noisy. The apartment with the windows closed is quiet. There's a tiny elevator. We mostly just climbed the stairs: 3rd floor.
