The city itself, although it houses a world-famous monument, did not leave a positive impression on us - expensive, crowded, and heavily touristy... However, it has many advantages: the airport is so close to the city center that you can easily walk there, and it is well connected by train to the surrounding beautiful regions of Italy, such as the Cinque Terre National Park.
