Overall, we had an excellent experience at The Nest. We were greeted at the apartment's entrance and provided with keys and information about the space. The "welcome gift" of wine and pasta was a lovely touch. The location of the apartment was ideal--we walked everywhere from there (the Coloseum, Roman Forum, Trajan's Market, the Pantheon, etc.). There are lots of good restaurants in the area as well as a well-stocked grocery store. Although my husband and I were comfortable there and negotiated the narrow winding steps to the sleeping loft without difficulty, this was due to the fact that we are both fairly small. Anyone taller than 5'8" would not be able to stand up in the loft area--fair warning. Other than that, I would definitely recommend Paola's place!
