We had a lovely stay. Monica and Marco were extremely sweet and helpful, providing great local recommendations and very responsive to and questions. The apartment is very well appointed - we were able to make stove top espressos every morning and sit on the balcony! It is located in an interesting part of town — near the university. The area had a nice off the beaten track vibe. We were a bit further away from San Marco square than expected but if you are okay with a little extra walking then that is no problem. There were two tall flights of stairs (each broken in half) to climb to get to the apartment.... I would say approximately 30 stairs in total.
