This was a great place to stay. Our only problem was connecting to our host once we got there and finding the place. We had the whole flat to ourselves. It is initially unappealing when one first arrives to see the bed so low to the ground and a fluffy pretty comforter would have made all the difference but the comfort level of the mattress was great and it was the best bed we had the entire time we were in Europe (a month). The location was great, the view out of the kitchen window was hard to beat, and the food left by our host was wonderful. He even left us a bottle of wine! We did not have a tv or radio/cd player. It would have been nice to have had a cd player and some Italian cds to play to enhance the whole experience.
It was a great place to stay but please be aware that there are 4 flights of stairs up to the apartment and getting your luggage up there is totally up to you.
