We could not be more impressed with the hospitality of our hosts. And while you should expect the apartment to be small (the ceilings, in particular, are a bit low where the old wooden supports are), you cannot beat the amazing location. You are very centrally located a short walk away from everything in the city center, it is a truly lovely spot.
A quick tip: if you're looking for a great, inexpensive local restaurant, try Trattoria da Maria. I was really impressed by the quality of the food, and the price, plus the dishes are almost all typical from the Liguria region.
