We had a wonderful time at this apartment. It is so perfectly located to access all the sites. It was a great space for us and our 3 year old - the elevator is such a great perk! We went to many of the restaurants nearby and visited the Gelato place just downstairs every day! You have a nice view of the top of the cathedral and tower from the top balcony, and you get to hear the bustling ambiance of the city right from you balcony windows. We had no issues with sound when the doors were closed and with a sound machine on. We are so happy we chose this place to stay and would highly recommend it.
