Overall, I enjoyed my stay in the apartment. Eugenia’s brother, Gabriele, was very responsive to my queries and was very helpful. I was allowed to keep my suitcase at a nearby hostel that belongs to Eugenia’s husband before check-in and after check-out. There was a mild bad smell (a little like urine) when I first entered but I got used to it. Eugenia and Gabriele had made efforts to minimise the smell with some air fresheners. I also understood from them that it was an issue with the building, not the apartment. Probably not for people with a sensitive nose but great otherwise.
