Elena's flat is everything the description and photos say it is - a very nice, clean apartment with just about everything needed for a short - or even extended - stay. We stayed for 4 weeks and found that the apartment had just about everything we needed (while the espresso maker would wonderfully suit the needs of Euro visitors, we left the French press [we just HAD to buy the 2nd day we were there] for those who might like bigger cups of "Cafe Americano"). The TV had a number of English stations; the wifi signal was strong (albeit, the speed a little slow) as the modem/router was located right in the apartment; the washer worked very well (like most Rome apartments, no dryer though); the shower had excellent pressure and the tub was a luxury we enjoyed after long-walk days; the kitchen was well-equipped; and the terrace was, for sure, an excellent way to enjoy a morning coffee or an afternoon wine or beer. The one "2-edged sword" that we would be amiss in not mentioning has to be the location - as others have said, a relatively large grocery store is conveniently located right across the street - unfortunately, it happens to be the only building in the neighborhood that has a 6-foot overhang all around it, which turned out to be a real "homeless magnet" (while we truly sympathized with their problems, we found that having to see and hear them every time we left and returned to be a little disconcerting). One other "Rome issue" that Elena certainly has no control over is the current overall condition of Rome - we found it to be far more dirty (no other word for it) than we remember it from our visit 6 years ago (trash bins overflowing everywhere; garbage in the streets everywhere, etc. - use a popular search engine to search on "Rome" "wild" and "boar" to see what I mean). As Elena mentioned to us, the recently-deposed mayor and her administration have had a "blind eye" on this issue and the homeless one and, hopefully, the new mayor (runoff underway right now) will tackle both problems much better. Elena was a very kind, courteous and responsive host - cannot thank her enough for her hospitality.
