Cinzia's place was in an ideal location, just a couple of blocks from the Duomo and great restaurants and shops. The apartment is on the first floor which was very much appreciated since we had to climb many stairs with our heavy luggage at the other apartments we stayed at in Italy. Cinzia does not speak much English, but she was very responsive with communication. For example, when we couldn't get the dryer to work, she gave us information about where to find laundrymats. The arrangements were very comfortable. Just a note that the shower is a tight squeeze and we had issues with water on the floor afterward, but otherwise a great place to stay. She gave us fresh fruit and snacks. Cinzia is a great host and I highly recommend her place!
