The apartment is exactly as shown in the pictures. It is large, modern, SUPER clean, and extremely comfortable. I LOVED the comfy bed and linens. And Pina and her family are wonderful hosts! Pina initiated contact early on and provided directions on how to get to the apartment. Despite an error (my fault) in the arrival time and then a delay due to the flight, Pina and Leonardo were there to meet us at the metro stop. They are very welcoming and helpful. They basically helped plan our itinerary and gave lots of "insider" pointers. They left all sorts of goodies (breakfast breads, coffee, tea, juice, WINE!) for us which meant we didn't have to spend our first day grocery shopping. They even went with my husband to pick up pizza the first night!

You get 5 star service with the comfort and privacy of being in your own apartment. They even provided turndown service the first night, leaving chocolates on our pillows and even on the pillow in the crib they set up for our son. And our son loved the little toys they have for children to play with.

Oh, and thank goodness for the cell phone they let you borrow. We got lost coming back to the apartment late the first night on our own and were able to call Pina for guidance back to the apartment. Now that's what I call service!

And it was also helpful that Pina speaks English, French AND Spanish, since those are the languages we speak and both my husband and I were able to communicate effectively with her.

When we return to Rome, we will definitely be looking up Pina's apartment.

PS I loved the large bathroom, umbrella to borrow and courtesy paper slippers to wear in the apartment!
