I love Monti and think the location of this apartment is great. You need to be prepared to carry your luggage up about four steep flights if your going to stay here, but the view is worth it! From 2 windows we could see The Senate and Palantine hill.
The apartment is quirky but has absolutely everything you might need! Be warned that the steps to the bed area are awkward in the middle of the night. I wouldn't stay here with kids!
Paolo welcomed us on arrival with some fruit, yoghurt and milk. He also made the effort to come all the way back from his beach place to sort out some plumbing issues in the bathroom.
All in all I totally recommend this apartment!
