Narcis’ apartment has some great advantages that are often make-or-break elements when traveling with children—laundry, good air conditioning, and lots of toys that make the kids excited to be in a new place. It was totally adequate and comfortable and suited our needs well. The location is good for visiting Rome’s historic center and the restaurants in Trastevere. And the price is great for what you get. Given these advantages, it’s a great option however there are a few downsides worth noting - there aren’t many services (supermarkets, etc) in the direct vicinity of the apartment, the apartment itself is clean enough but has a bit of a “burner” apartment feel (old carpet, cheap furniture and fixtures), you can feel the intensity of the use it gets with families cycling through every few days, and finally beware of the knives in the kitchen which are colorful and at a toddlers arm’s reach making them a very appealing and very dangerous toy for little ones. Overall it’s a great option where there aren’t many, but important to be aware of what you’re getting!
PS check in was smooth and Narcis was always available on WhatsApp to address any questions or needs
