We had such a wonderful time, especially our chats with Sandor and Giuliana over afternoon wine and morning pastries. They have lived such interesting lives and their place is beautifully furnished with art and keepsakes. They are very generous and comfortable with sharing their home. We hope they will travel and stay with us sometime. Before reserving, we reviewed considerations mentioned by the hosts and a few reviewers concerning street noise, toilet/bathroom sharing, and stair-climbing. None of these turned out to be issues for us. Even though my husband is a light sleeper, he slept well--earplugs and the bedroom's sound-muting windows worked well. Overall, it was exactly the right place for us, and we definitely hope to rent with them again.
