Oh my goodness, our 3 nights in this apartment was a highlight of our 2.5 weeks in Italy. It was a bit of a splurge for us, but after moving around every 1-3 nights and sweating constantly in 100 degree temps, totally worth it. We were met (early!) by Biana, Cristina's daughter, and shown the ropes, including the air conditioning, which we actually used only one night because the apartment had great air flow and stayed cool. I was worried about noise w/ a pool right outside, but neighbors were quiet and respectful, and we made sure the do the same. It was the perfect retreat after a hot day traipsing around Roman sights. They left great recommendations as well - we loved Augusto, and of course the neighborhood can't be beat for food, drink, and people watching. Such a great stay!
