Gian is a wonderful host. The apartment is spacious, well-appointed, well-maintained. The only problems with the place is not within his control. It has far too few elevators, with the result that guests who aren't up for walking up the 11 fights of stairs to Gian's place waited up to a half hour or so for elevators, at least at peak times like Presidents day when we were there. The building manager seems very good as does all of the building staff, but at least that weekend, it seemed badly understaffed.
