I chose this space because of its proximity to the train station.
pros-
1. it was very easy to get in and out of the city with a 7 min walk. So it was easy to take a train to another city and come home late without any issues.
2. close to many of the major muesums and sites
3. close to the san lorenzo mercato and a conad (a major supermarket)
4. food choices in the nearby area also very good.
5. apt was clean.
6. marie and mom were great and took care of a minor issue and went out of her way to help us make a reservation for dinner.
7. checkin and checkout smooth and painless.
cons-
1. hot water is kind of hard to control when taking a shower and doing dishes.
2. the street where the apt was located, seemed to be a stop for groups of men drinking beer at night and some beggars during the day. I never felt unsafe because there were a lot of people walking thru and it was a clean, well lit street.
3. bathroom a little tight if you are a larger person.
Summary-
Location is fantastic, hostess is great...the only issue is the street.
