Wonderful location on one of the sweetest streets in Rome. Easy walk to Vatican, Spanish Steps, Trevi. A little longer but still walkable to P. Navona and Campo di Fiori. Longer walk to Colosseum, but you can also easily take the metro line which is at the end of the street!
Communication was quick and responsive. Definitely look at the photos regarding check-in. They are extremely helpful and make the self-check in easy. Never met Momo or her associates in person.
You enter building through the beautiful old door, through passageway, upstairs and into outdoor back entrances to dwellings which are obviously lived in by families etc. Lovely wisteria etc makes it a very picturesque authentic Rome experience.
Entry is into a small entry-way, tiny but well-stocked kitchen in front of you. Living /dining area with a TV (we didn't use it) plus 2 chairs in corner. Small full bathroom on this floor. This room has a large skylight which allows a lot of light in. Nice to have natural light, makes the room a bit hotter and also a bit harder to sleep in late if you wish. One of us slept on the sofa bed and no complaints - which is nice for a sofa bed! Kitchen table is big, easy to work at. Apartment is cutely decorated as appears in photos.
Then head up narrow staircase through curtain (no door fyi for those needing acoustic privacy) to bedroom. Bed is very comfy. Skylight in this room can be closed. Walk through a large walk in closet to shower/bath/sinks. Bath and shower are great with plenty of hot water! Toilet/bidet is separate-nice touch for couples. There is a fireplace insert (we didn't use it) and door out to the small terrace where we enjoyed sitting after dinner once the heat dissipated. Upstairs A/C had to work hard to keep up- Rome, like the rest of the world, is starting its heatwaves earlier in the summer.
Apartment is refreshingly quiet, esp for this part of the city. That said, if you're a super light sleeper like I am, do bring earplugs because obviously you're still in a city. Distant traffic noise or neighbors talking outside can still happen. (:
Momo arranged a Taxi for our departure. Driver arrived early and was the best driver we'd had in Italy, and had a car that could easily accommodate our embarrassing amount of luggage.
One downside: we arrived at check-in time and cleaners had just arrived to clean the place. Not a deal breaker but a little challenging b/c we'd chosen this place in part for its check-in time as we had an earlier arrival in Rome. In fact, we requested early check-in, totally understood that it wasn't possible as they had to clean before we arrived. We were looking forward to getting out of the heat and resting up after travel, so a bit disappointed having to go back out during the afternoon heatwave again. The cleaners did let us leave our bags, though.
We told Momo about a couple of small things that needed fixing and she was very responsive.
Some of Rome's best Gelaterie (gelator shops) are nearby. Definitely fun to try one (or more) a day. Surprisingly, our favorite was at Quetzalcoatl Chocolatier. The founders ware French "Maître Chocolatiers" and the son has a certificate in gelato-making. Their chocolate is excellent as well. Enjoy!
