BE AWARE of the following:
1. The house rules are written in Italian and there is a fee of 3.50 euros for the rental. According to Svetlana the 3.50 applies to each person and for every day. It is not what it says in Italian. I did the translation and nowhere in the "house rules" says anything about per each person and per day. I refused to pay it because it is not what it says in the house rules and because i booked for four people and we ended only three.
2. Buy your own toilet paper because according to Svetlana she has to provide only one role for the time you stay at her place. Keep in mind that the toilet paper roles in Italy are tiny. She provided us with the toilet paper after explaining to me the above and as a "personal favor".
3. The place in unbelievable and scary noise. You don't know what's going on, if there is a fight going on, or a moving going on, or something worse as last night we stayed there.
4. No, the place is not close to anything. You will be totally isolated from the Rome you want to see. Two weeks before we stayed at another place, which everything was close, not tax or toilet paper issues, surrounded by restaurants, cafes, shopping, walking distance (10 minutes) to the Vatican, the Spanish steps, plazas, pantheon, etc. Unfortunately the place was fully booked for our second time in Rome.
The apartment is ok with good kitchen and bathroom.
I would not recommend this place to a friend and i would never rent it if i knew about the taxes and the "funny" toilet paper detail.
Svetlana should write her "house rules" in English to everyone to understand and be aware of what to expect.
