The appartment is outside the city centre but only 10 to 15 mins walk to the centre. It is close to a little square with 3 restaurants and several more within 5 mins walk. It was in the heart of the local community but not atall noisey. Santa Caterina church nearby is beautiful inside if you get a chance to look. Apartment kitchen has all the basics however we actually only used the kettle and the fridge. The beds are comfortable and the place is clean and warm. We had a slight problem with operating the heating but the hosts helped us to sort this out quickly as it was December when we stayed. To get to the bathroom you have to go via the smaller bedroom which is worth noting but didnt affect our stay. The location is great as long as you don't mind navigating your way through the narrow streets to get to the centre. Highly recommended.
