“Location is key here; you're literally steps from the Duomo, with some apartments offering direct views, a real treat; inside, expect spaciousness, especially in the family-sized apartments, complete with kitchenettes. Bathrooms might feel a touch compact, but the overall charm and central setting more than compensate.”
