We stayed in the apartment for a week.
We were welcomed by Paola's friend. She was very nice. Gave us a walk thru of the apartment. Answered all our questions.
The apartment is very much what you see in the pictures. Its located at about 10 mins walk from the Colosseum in the Monti neighborhood. We really liked the location. 1 min walk to the Cavour Street Station or 15 mins walk from the Central Station. The neighborhood is kind of hipster. Small shops and university students. Not too many tourists like you would see in other areas. We walked to the Spanish Steps (about 35-40 mins walk), the Jewish Ghetto (about 20-25 mins walk) and other places. Or take the train anywhere from Cavour St Station! Vatican city is about 15-20 mins in train (with a connection.)
The apartment is on the 5th floor (Ground + 4.) Separate bathroom, living room and kitchen on the main floor....very well equipped. Wi-fi, heaters, washing machine...all worked very well. Stairs from the living room lead you down to the bedroom. All areas have windows with lots of natural light.
Couple of things that could improve the entire experience: 1) A larger TV and 2) Better faucets....yes, you have to be careful when switching from cold to hot....its tricky!
