This was a great apartment. Prompt communications before we arrived. Paola accomodated our early arrival, which was very nice of her. Upon arrival, I was a little confused on the location of the apartment because of the street numbers (and lack of sleep). If you walk from Termini, just keep going, the street numbers start over again. The apartment is just steps from the entrance of Vittorio Emanuele. The apartment was clean and I loved the way Paola furnished the bedrooms. Lots of space for us to hang things on the metal racks (this was how we dried our laundry). A couple of things to note: the bathroom is VERY narrow (so if you are not, this might not be the place for you) and the washing machine is very small (maybe 1/4-1/2 of a load). I did find it to be a bit noisy, but I expect this in a big city. Oh, and the air conditioning worked really well. Wifi was good enough for us (mostly used for email and basic web surfing). As for the area, we found a couple of decent restaurants, a convience store almost across the street and a larger grocery store very close by. Very convenient to the metro. Do not go to the park by the metro -- its awful!
I definitely recommend this large, clean apartment!
