Marlene seems to be a wonderful person. she communicated regularly with me answering any questions. Abdoul was very gracious and helpful meeting us. The place was perfect for my six year old daughter and me while my wife travelled elsewhere for professional workshop. It would be small for very large size people! Everything worked and was well laid out. The building is like an old palazzo and the apartment was for seeing who was coming to the huge front door. The gate minder. Amazing location! and right next to the cat sanctuary in the beautiful Largo dei Argentina. I was pleased to yet again have a chance to photograph and take in these fantastic ruins in the midst of the bustling city. (My daughter could not leave the cats in the sanctuary). Not noisy - I slept well in August, no need for more than fans - surprisingly cool in the intense Rome heat. (There isnt air conditioner). you can walk to everything Piazza de Navona, Pantheon, Campo di Fiore etc...
