This place was FANTASTIC! I would definitely stay again. It was just as advertised. The apartment is only one floor up and there is a small elevator that is rarely used. The bathroom and shower are on the main floor of the apartment. The other tenants were respectful. Sometimes you could hear things going on down at the street level but it was never out of the ordinary and this is a less busy part of town so it was more peaceful and quiet. The nice thing about this apartment is that it is so spacious and lovely. It really is like a home away from home.
Here are some fun things to know about the area...
There is a church close by and they do offer Masstimes. Check their website. The church is gorgeous and attendance was sparce when I went.
I think my favorite thing about the location was the little pastry shop close by on the same street. Their desserts are AMAZING, and so beautiful. I think they are featured in one of the pictures of the apartment. Their bread is AWESOME! Try the ones with the green olives baked in...yum.
Aroma is a very popular SEAFOOD restaurant that is on the same block. I didn't have a chance to try it but I have heard good things from travel websites, so that is a good place to try. There is a great restaurant just down the street that is called Que' Ganzi Trattoria-Osteria at Via Ghibellina 70r. Great food.
Another impressive restaurant clear across town was B Station wine and food lab. They have fun foods and it is so reasonably priced. Addresses are Via Romana 126Rosso and Via Serragli 133Rosso.
