This is an unattended apartment on the top floor of a residental buidling. The staff shows up to clean, set out breakfast and no one is there the rest of the time. 3 of the 4 rooms appear to be comfortable and will give you the sense of living like a Roman. You may have to have to call to have someone let you in when , so you you may have to wait on the street for someone to arrive. Be sure to have a cell phone with you.
BEWARE THE 4th ROOM that is reclaimed space in the attic of the building. If you chose to stay here, ask NOT to be given this room or go back to the train station and find another if it is offered.
Getting to the 4th room requires a trip up the stairs that are only 18 inches wide. Because of the open steps, you're fine going up, but coming down you have 5 inch tread. In addition to being narrow, I was never sure how securely they were fastened to the wall. The door to the room itself i20 inches wide and 5-1/2 feet tall. Because of a beam in front of the door, it is effectively 5 feet tall. The first time I went up to inspect the room, I hit my head on a beam coming out of the room door and nearly fell down the narrow stairs.
I'm not sure this is a safe sleeping space. Given the "Private" sign above the door, they may not be claiming it as a legal room. There are serious safety issues here. The only other egress is a small skylight that leads to the sloping roof. There were no fire alarms that I saw.
If getting to the room isn't bad enough, the bathroom for this unit is only 4 feet tall on the short end (the ceiling is sloped) where the toilet is located -- no one can stand upright within 4 feet of the toilet.The shower was tight, and I was unable to stand up fully in it. The bathroom was lit by one dim bulb, the wires of which were taped to the beam running across the bathroom. The water wavers between freezing and scalding with no warning.
These rooms are on the top floor of condo building with a disfunctional, tiny elevator (so up or down 150 steps every time you want to come or go). The elevator wasn't working for 3 days of our stay, we had to carry our bags down the stairs when leaving.
You will be required to pay in full prior to staying. I would go somewhere else.
