Nice place, but may not work for everyone
My college-aged daughter and I spent our first three nights in Italy as a starting point to her semester abroad. We were both very excited about this apartment, and while there are some nice features, a few things took away from our experience.
Pros: pictures of the apartment itself are mostly accurate and there is a lot of space and windows (note info about the stairs). Both the regular bed and sofa bed were comfortable. Communication with the host company was typically quite quick.
Cons: The apartment is above a dance club whose hours are 11PM to 5AM Tues-Sun. Google Maps shows something called "hub" but this is an old photo as there is now the Play Club. We stayed Friday to Sunday and every night the noise from the music and/or the people on the street outside it was non-stop. In fact, often times the street noise was louder after closing, including a very loud fight Saturday night. I knew we were staying in a city but was not expecting this. Needless to say, we did not sleep well at all. Another disappointment was that this was the most sparsely supplied rental I have ever stayed in. A notice mentioned soaps would not be supplied, but in reality, all that was supplied was a single roll of toilet paper. So if you want/need more than that (paper towels, hand soap, dish soap, laundry) prepare to go shopping unless you happen to pack it with you. Additionally, if you want to use the sofa bed, be sure to request that or you will not have linens your first night.
