We didn't get to meet Monica as she was ill. We were met by her friend Jade who was at the property on time. Jade showed us around and answered our questions. The apartment is exactly as pictured--very spacious. We appreciated the two bathrooms and three bedrooms. The washer/dryer combo was very convienent. This apartment is right by the Vatican--very nice for touring the basillica and museum. There is a subway station nearby as well. We were disappointed that there was no view of the basillica as promised due to construction on the front of the building. There is a protective screen for construction that covers all three windows--so absolutely no views at all. We realize that this is out of Monica's control. Though the streets outside are very loud and busy this time of year, the apartment was very quiet. We enjoyed our stay.
