Assisi is an extraordinary city in a region that is full of wonderful places and kind people. We made our first visit to Umbria in May 2022, and we hope that life’s opportunities allow us to return to Assisi. When we do, we hope to stay again at this great apartment. The family lives nearby and the service is flat-out excellent. The apartment is just as described: Brand new--with clean tiles in both bathrooms, excellent lighting, comfortable furniture, a fabulous terrace, and fast and steady WiFi. The apartment’s location suits us, but is a bit tricky to find because its street is one branch of a larger street. Still, the location is good: a short walk to one of the ancient eastern gates of Assisi and, by walking at a leisurely pace, we need less than 30 minutes to arrive in the center of the city. The streets of Assisi go up and down, and wind their ways towards lovely piazze. We were comfortable walking each day back and forth from the apartment, and the city feels safe, but to save time from a day’s travel (say, after returning from Gubbio) we prefer to park and step up quickly in the heart of the city. (We use il Parcheggio Porta Mojano, one of several good garages.) The location is just a short distance from Eremo delle Carceri, and along that road is a fabulous osteria with great foods and wines, as well as a commanding view of the valley. The apartment is so comfortable that, if we are fortunate to return to Assisi, we plan to enjoy at least half of the day (morning or early evening) relaxing inside or on the terrace. Just a few minutes away is a classic Italian bar and a full-service grocery store, and thus a simple way to find foods for the day’s lunch or dinner and meeting a few people of Assisi. Deeply grateful for the pro service and, above all, the kindness.
