The apartment is elegant, modern, practical, with every convenience including strong Wi-Fi, a well equipped kitchen, and a washing machine. Perhaps the best rental I have ever experienced. Sulmona is a great homebase for much of beautiful Abruzzo, and the historic center is enchanting - a great place for walking. This apartment is in the historic center, on the top floor (with an elevator) with a fabulous view especially at night. The fact that parking is not allowed in the center should not be a concern because parking is available just outside the center near the apartment. In fact Luciano picked us up, but it is a nearby easy walk.
In addition to enjoying the old city, we drove to Pescoconstanzo- highly recommended by way of SS487 - and Castel del Monte to the north. In town we enjoyed two restaurants recommended by Luciano: Cantina di Biffi and Buonvento. Both needed reservations, even in September.
I unqualifiedly recommend this fabulous apartment, and am great full for Luciano’s gracious hosting.
