We had an Apartment away from the hotel which was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Close to Piazza Maggiore and Quadrilatero area where there was some amazing food on offer. We visited the rooftop bar once, just a pity it was November as it looked lovely and perfect for a late drink in Spring or Summer.
