The area, mainly residential, is appreciated for its closeness to leading healthcare facilities and for a more relaxed atmosphere than the historic centre, while still maintaining easy connections to the rest of the city. In the immediate surroundings there are small local bars and restaurants, such as Royal Caffè about 550 metres away and Trattoria Pizzeria Monte Gaudio 400 metres away, as well as the M&G the Restaurant right next to the property.
