Far from the tourist chaos but surrounded by greenery...it almost feels like being in Tuscany!
The apartment is simple but welcoming and well finished, you can immediately see that Tosia puts love and passion into it... and this makes the difference, you can breathe as soon as you open the door!

The house was incredibly clean and tidy. The spaces were so comfortable, with attention to detail that made my stay even more enjoyable.
