Fabiana and Rocco were away during our visit, so we did not have an opportunity to meet them. We were met upon arrival by Gemma (a friend and neighbour) who did an excellent job of welcoming us, showing us the apartment and recommending some highlights of the city. The apartment is very small, but we knew that going in. The apartment is about a 20 minute walk from the train station and about the same to the downtown tourist areas. There is lots of public transportation, but we prefer walking. The apartment served us very well.
