Ludovica's father was our host as she was laid up with a back injury. We arrived almost an hour late due to train problems but our host was very patient and helpful! He called us and was full of information. When we arrived at the apartment he gave us lots of tips about the neighborhood and offered that we could call or text him with any questions.
The apartment was charming and very centrally located! The beds were comfortable and the space was clean and airy. The stairs to get up to the apartment are a little steep so I would not recommend this place for anyone with difficulty walking. The location was terrific, though, as we were close enough to the Duomo to walk there easily and also to Santa Croce but we were also in a neighborhood of locals with a wonderful market at the end of the Via dei Pilastri.
