Assunta's apartment was everything we had hoped! Francesco greeted us, after very kind flexibility about check-in time. The apartment is sparkling-bright and immaculate, with gorgeous higher-up views, the selling point for me, with small terraces around the curved building to step out rather regally and take in everything! The kitchen was perfectly equipped - it was our first use of a Nespresso machine and it is so fast and makes a great cup first-thing, saving the cafes for later. We appreciated the gas stove; there is no microwave, but that was not an issue for us. The beds look thin don't feel that way; they are memory foam mattresses with cozy bedding. The wifi was very reliable. Francesco and Assunta share many recommendations in their printed apartment information, and one was to have lunch after our Borghese tour (should do this anyway even if not headed to to the Borghese) at Casina Valadier, an understatedly elegant meal with a stellar view of the city from a calmer and green space.
We chose this apartment for our group of six, and that would have been perfect. Due to medical issues we ended up just two, so of course the space was a bit cavernous. More than six people would work if showering was timed well since there are just two; there is a third bathroom, the most beautiful of the three, that has a gorgeous jetted tub but no shower.
Assunta and Francesco were very generous in offers to arrange transportation on our behalf.
We intend, when medical issues resolve, to return to Assunta's apartment again, all six of us. Grazie mille, Assunta and Francesca, for giving us the perfect spot to call home in Rome!
