Elena's Central Apartment with a View is a great place to stay, and somewhere I can highly recommend for discerning guests seeking more than just a hotel room. The location is just superb, near the Tiber River and within walking distance to pretty much everything a visitor to Rome would want, but also peaceful, calm and five stories removed from the hubbub below. With two bedrooms (one double, one single) it's perfect for two or three people, and the large, eat-in kitchen is fully-equipped if you feel like cooking. Elena met us on arrival and departure just as arranged, and all went perfectly to plan. Communication during the booking process was excellent. Being situated on the fifth floor (no lift) was no barrier at all, and made for lots of guilt-free dining as we knew the stairs would burn it off. If you are looking for a great place to stay and feel like a real Roman for a few days, this is a fine choice!
