Great Apartment for a Long Getaway
We rented this apartment for a month, and felt it was very comfortable. It was immaculate, and I am fussy about cleanliness. It has very new bathroom fixtures and kitchen appliances, all sparkling clean and in great working condition. The kitchen had everything one needed, and the full sized refrigerator, induction cooktop, and microwave oven were especially appreciated. Although the main entrance to the building was off a busy street, all of the apartment windows faced a private, quiet courtyard. The kitchen was especially bright and welcoming with two huge sets of windows that flooded the kitchen with sunlight that spilled into the living area. Since we visited in March, we did not need the air conditioning, so cannot comment about its functioning; the heating worked well on chilly days. The location was in a neighborhood a few blocks outside the old San Frediano gate into the city, so was not at all touristy, and there were many good restaurants within an easy walk. We appreciated not being in a tourist district, but that made it a little more distant to the main historic and cultural sites; however, there was a bus stop right outside the main door into our building, and we often hopped on the 6A or 6B bus to take us over the river. As was noted by others, Nicola was a wonderful, attentive host; probably the best we have ever had the pleasure to meet and get to know during our stay. His guidance made our trip especially pleasurable!
