The apartment matched the pictures and the description. The kitchen is modern and a pleasure to use. The washing machine handled several loads for us that dried quickly in the Rome air. We made use of the separate spaces so that the early bird enjoyed the living room while the late sleeper was undisturbed.

It is clearly the space of a visual person, with a HUGE city map of Paris, a HUGE city map of Rome, and a classic black and white photo album of New York.

I'd gladly rent this place again. I'll recommend it to my friends.

The library is large with intriguing language choices, to wit:
Camus, L'Etranger, (The Stranger), in French.
Harry Potter, in Italian.
Schlesinger, I Mille Giorni di John F. Kennedy (1000 Days of John F. Kennedy), in Italian.
Saint-Exupery, The Little Prince, in English.
The Light of New York, by Jean-Michel Berts, 2007, black and white large format photos, including a photo of the Italian Caffe Napoli and Puglia Ristorante at Mulberry St. and a photo of The Washington Square Arch in Washington Square that looks like ancient Rome.
Kurt Vonnegut, Player Piano, in English.
Laurence Bergreen, Marco Polo from Venice to Xanadu, in English.

Caveat: In addition to the eclectic library of the hostess, don't fail to explore the Pantheon, the Forum, and all of Ancient Rome - within walking distance. The location is ideal for walking tours of Rome as well as easy access to the busses and trains.
