From the moment we had booked our stay, the communication with Mario, our host, was great. We had miscalculated the commute time, so we arrived at the apartment well after we had expected. When nobody answered the intercom, we gave the given phone number a ring, announced that we had arrived, and after a minute or two, Mario showed up to take us to the apartment. He was sociable and welcoming and the whole process of getting the formalities done (taking pictures of our passports, paying the overnight fees for Rome, and handing over the keys) was very efficient. He showed us our room, the apartment that it was part of, and he even offered to take us to Trastevere with his car when we told him we wanted to go there for dinner. The apartment is spacious, modern, well-equipped, and has a garden/terrace. The same goes for the room and the bathroom which comes with it. Later that day, we had to find out, though, that the water in the shower wouldn’t get warm. The text day we informed Mario about the problem and he told us he’d take care of it. That night and at the following days, the water would get warm, but only after leaving it running for a couple of minutes. Then it would change between hot and cold without turning the handle. That somewhat spoiled the experience of showering in that great shower with massage showerhead, rain shower, and a natural stone bath plate. However, the overall experience was great!
