Donatella and her brother were great hosts. The apartment was just as pictured on the website. The room was ginormous and clean. The only downfalls were the lack of air circulation in the room and the communication barrier. We literally woke up drenched in sweat the first two nights, however, when we asked Donatella for a fan, she delivered right away. Donatella also doesn't speak a word of English so it was hard to communicate face to face but her brother was there to help translate a bit. Just a tip... Google Translate will come in handy. The apartment is close to several restaurants, supermarkets, as well as the metro. The Vatican is about a 10 minute walk away, which we didn't realize so we took the metro one stop and wasted a ticket. I high,y recommend staying with Donatella on your next visit to Rome.
