Perfect Location, Nice Apartment
Marco's apartment was the perfect location for our 3-night stay in Turin. It is within a short walk of the major piazzas and tourist sites, as well as both train stations. The apartment consists of a spacious bedroom with lots of storage space, a good-sized bathroom, and a compact kitchen perfect for breakfast or even a meal later in the day...although I'm not sure why anyone would want to cook in a city with so many great restaurants and bars. The apartment was clean, nicely decorated, and well-equipped. Marco provided us with a wealth of information on the city—places to eat, things to see, even a suggested itinerary. We followed most of his advice and had a great time, although we also realized that Turin deserves far more time than the two days we allotted to see it. As the description says, the apartment is on the third floor of an historic building with no lift, so it does require some stair-climbing. But we felt the location and cleanliness made it well worth a few stairs.
