The apartment is located in a great area of Rome, very close to loads of bars, restaurants and gelaterias! The room is as pictured and like previous reviews state, is on the ground floor so noise can be an issue if you're a light sleeper or not prepared with ear plugs.

Francesco was friendly to deal with by email and we were able to get in touch with him by phone quickly when we had a bit of trouble finding the apartment.

While we had a wonderful time in Rome, there were a couple of things that did dampen our experience a bit.

1. Unfortunately, despite letting Francesco know our arrival well in advance, the cleaner was still cleaning the apartment when we arrived and we had to wait an hour before we could in.
2. The cleaner wanted to take our passports (apparently to verify the Rome city tax?) but this wasn't communicated via email or on the listing in advance. There was no way we were giving up our passports! We were able to send a photo of them instead in the end, but it was an uneasy start to the stay.
