The apartment is nicely situated close enough to the sights of Rome, but far enough away to be quiet. Alessandra had great communications and respected my privacy. Andrea (Alessandra's friend) was very helpful and nice - helped with the bags and advised good places to go. The steps up to the apartment may not be advisable with cases unless you are physically quite strong and fit. There are a lot of steps and they are quite steep. However, there is another way to access the apartment from the top of the hill, which you could use if you wanted to avoid the steps. If you get the Metro, you will definitely have to take the steps on. But you could ask Alessandra for directions if you had heavy bags and wanted to get a taxi and use the top entrance to avoid the steps. Inside the apartment is quite small but was no problem for me. I would say forget it if you're over 5 foot 10, as it is a loft apartment and you won't be able to stand upright in it. The layout is quite quirky, but I really liked it - it is cosy and the terrace is small but a great place to relax as it's quite cool and quiet with a good view out over the neighbouring areas. The Wifi was great - no problems at all. The air-conditioning was really good. There are a couple of improvements that would make a difference - The wiring was hanging out on a couple of the light fittings, which isn't hard to fix and would be safer, and the washing machine was not working during the stay - which would have been really useful. These are things I'm sure Alessandra will fix after she reads this. I would definitely recommend the apartment, as it was quiet and not too far to walk to the sights and Alessandra was easy to contact if I had any questions, thanks again, Dave.
