We truly enjoyed our stay with Francesca. The apartment had an open, airy feel with plenty of space for our family of four to stretch out and get over jet lag. It is the top floor of her parents' large home and, if anything, is nicer that its photos. Francesca's parents, who live downstairs, were charming and helpful getting us settled. We really appreciated the welcome snacks including biscuits, coffee, milk, and juice. The apartment is in a perfect area of the city: central, close to the train station, yet away from tourist hordes. We particularly enjoyed the sounds of buskers playing violins while tennis players outside the window played on the family's tennis courts. Some other quick notes: We arrived straight from the airport and took a water taxi (pricey but well worth it given jet lag, our family of four, and our family of four's voluminous luggage) to a little canal dock right below our bedroom window. There is a well-stocked Coop market a 4 minute walk north on the other side of a square that was usually packed with kids running around a playing ball in the evenings. The internet was consistent and solid around 8-10MB down and .85MB up.
