Expect the best, and you shall receive. This is a spectacular place with an even better hostess. Great deck, wonderful windows, quiet, close to everything, and a great kitchen that is fully stock with spices, olive oil...you name it. Fridge was stocked with wine and cold water -- still and sparkling. It doesn't have the automatic coffee maker, but who really wants them when there is a small and a large espresso maker. I can't say enough about the apartment and Gildas. Every time I am in Rome in the future. I will try to stay here. It's perfect for two too.
