We had a great stay with Gian Paolo as Brian was away traveling! We were encouraged to make ourselves at home often and we felt very much at home. Great communication with Gian prior to arrival about how to get there and check in. Apartment was very clean and spacious. Gian was very accommodating with everything. The cats are very nice and playful and friendly although they never slept with us :( We were there for a weekend so Gian had several friends over and everyone was very friendly and introduced themselves! Worst part of our trip was sightseeing so much that we didnt get to hang out with Gian more!
