The apartment is filled with light and is in a wonderful location on the Campo de' Fiori. The piazza is always bustling, and I loved it. Yes, it's noisy until about 3 am or so, but there are also wonderful musicians every night, and the noise really grows on you. I stayed in the apartment while I worked online for a month. There is lots of hot water (in the shower, not the kitchen), good water pressure, strong wifi, a small desk to work at, good a/c, space for a yoga mat, and the wonderful market downstairs and lots of great restaurants and coffee shops nearby. The downside for me was in the lack of comfort for someone who was actively working. There are 3 plastic chairs and one rigid arm chair in addition to the bed. I really missed having a sofa or comfy chair or place to relax. There's a high-tech looking oven/microwave, a/c, and washer, but these didn't really have instructions. The city manager helped me figure out the washer by text. Not ideal, but I was glad for the help. I appreciated the drying rack and extension cord at the desk. The biggest downside for me was the non-functioning lock on the front door of the building. I received a key for this door, but it just pushes open without the key because the lock is damaged and useless. As a single woman staying alone (and I only ever saw someone else in the building on 2 occasions), this was unsettling. The piazza is busy at all times. There are often waiters sitting immediately in front of the entrance to the building or people/market workers hanging out nearby. It doesn't feel great to walk up and enter the building without a key while others are watching, and this happened repeatedly. I contacted Jimmy and the city manager about this and was told that it's difficult to get it fixed. I was given two separate dates when this would be fixed, but nothing ever happened. I have no doubt that the building is safe. Rome is safe. The lock on the door to the apartment itself is very heavy and secure. Nothing bad happened to me, but not having a secure entrance to the building didn't feel very good, and it's worth considering when you're looking for a place to stay.
