While the apartment is in an excellent location, walking distance to restaurants, cafes and historical sites, the apartment itself is in desperate need of repair/updating.
The shower is miniature in size - I am a tiny 50kg woman and felt claustrophobic in it as it was so small. The small amount of water which flowed out of the spout sprayed everywhere but where needed, and along with the leaking shower base, flooded the entire bathroom. The washing machine pipe also leaked, leaving the bathroom floor like a river.
Like other reviews, the washing machine does not spin properly leaving clothes very wet, which is difficult when there is no rack or line to dry them on,
The kitchen is old and dirty-looking which we chose not to use. The tap stripped during our entire stay, something I also saw in a review from months before our stay. One of the “bedrooms” is the lounge area right at the front entrance of the apartment.
We were on the 2nd floor and there is no lift. The stairs are very steep and narrow which made getting luggage up and down very difficult.
It is obvious that the owner is just about making money and is not prepared to spend any money to fix the apartment. Luigi was pleasant and easy to deal with, however he came into the apartment during our stay while we were out to change the shower head, which I was not thrilled about.
As mentioned, the area is amazing but there are much nicer places to stay in this area.
