If I had travelled on my own I would have felt very isolated as there was no contact with the host. We had Eleonora's phone number but only felt comfortable to use it when we wanted to request a late check out due to a late flight time, which she allowed. The terrace was really nice and had air conditioning which would be really appreciated on a hot summers day. The blinds made you feel (1) very secure at night (2) blackout so easy to sleep and (3) kept the apartment cool in the mornings.
