We had a lovely stay in Mariano's apartment. It is very spacious and homey. The kitchen is well equipped and the bedrooms are comfortable and quiet. We slept very well, awakened only by the birds and the church bells. We would have loved to stay much longer! The apartment is on the 3rd floor, so the views of the small canal outside the window were quite nice. The neighborhood is quiet and away from the touristy areas but only a 10 minute, beautiful walk away from a busy commercial area with all of the shopping and browsing you'd expect. Adorable and delicious restaurants and cafes are steps away and a small grocery is a 3 minute walk. A small boutique hotel next door has a bar and small outdoor restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The internet is very slow, but I think that's more an issue of the area, generally, and not the apartment. We would love to return some day. Communication was great and we were met at the apartment right on time. Thank you, Mariano!
