The apartment was in a great location. Being there in august during a heat wave was hard, but the two air conditioners worked great to cool the place down after a few hours. Monica and her sister were very responsive to all questions/concerns. As many others have said the stairs can be a bit daunting and can get noisy over night and early in the morning. Also I'd say the place can sleep 4 adults (1 couple and non couple). If you have 3 small kids then 5 would work. This would be utilizing the couch space in both situations as the one bed only fits 1 adult person. The tv, which you can tell is older from the pictures, didn't really work properly and had a high pitch sound. Which is ok, you aren't in Rome to watch tv after-all, just hard if you like background noise occasionally. Then the hot water heater had broke on us late Friday night. Monica's sister came Saturday afternoon and couldn't fix it, so they said a repair guy was needed and we didn't know how long this would take, but they said he could come in the evening. Normally would not have been an issue at all for waiting on repair, but we had a wedding to attend in the evening and my bf was in the wedding party. So we desperately needed showers and to get ready (it was a heat wave so we were even worse off). This is why we ended up cutting our stay short and went to a hotel. I wish we could have stayed the entire time as I loved the apartment and the terrace was lovely. Overall, even with the few issues, I definitely would recommend staying here.
