We loved the apartment. It was beautiful and in a beautiful building. It was also comfortable for my group of 5 people. Showers were great and the beds were great. Paolo met us at the train station and walked with us to the apartment, and answered all our questions. He also arranged for someone to carry our luggage (we had many suitcases!) from the station to the apartment and from the apartment back to the station. This involved a small fee to the carrier, but was totally worth it. We enjoyed our stay at Laura's place and highly recommend it.
