you will enjoy the patio that comes with the apartment. be aware that the rental companies workers can access the downstairs common area to get to their storage room, although they were always very polite when they had to do so. some of the furniture was threadbare and there was a hole in the master bedroom wall that should be repaired. I also reported that some of the chairs in the dining room had legs that were either wobbly or had fallen off and should be fixed. on a positive note, we were able to stay in contact directly with ilaria, our host, and she sent us prompt replies. our internet box died and she had it replaced with a brand new model that worked great. we loved the location close to the boat stops, restaurants, and the grocery store.
