Communication with Alessandro was great and check in was easy, but we were surprised to find the apartment was not newly remodeled as stated in the description. The bathroom appears to be newly remodeled, but the kitchen needs updating and the blinds to the view need to be repaired in order to open. Casa del Sol was walking distance to downtown and the grocery store for us. We enjoyed dinner on our balcony most nights and time at the pool. The apartment was spacious and a good value for the price.
