Please be aware that this is not an apartment fixed up exclusively for touristic rentals but it's the place where the owner (my best friend who lives in Genoa) lives when she's back in town and we rent it occasionally. Guest access We offer our guests the entire apartment, balcony included. High-speed Wifi Connection is available everywhere. Please use the A/C and the washing machine/dishwasher responsibly environment-wise! i.e. please do not leave the A/C on all day while out visiting and please consider that doing laundry after 7pm is energy - and money! - saving :) Feel free to go through the books as you may find a good read in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and of course Italian! A set of cards and speakers are also there for you to use. At your arrival you'll find city maps, useful information about the neighborhood and the city, emergency numbers, house rules and a selection of recommended bars and restaurants.
