Very clean, comfortable bed. Snacks and coffee available 24 hours a day which was very helpful before or after exploring the city.
Close to Termini train station, but it's a hefty walk to the historic city center everyday. I would stay closer if it's your first time to Rome.
I learned the hard way that you have to let the water run for at least 10 mins to get hot water. When I told the host I had to bathe in the sink because its water was warmer than the shower she seemed unapologetic and told me to just run the water longer (I had run it for about 8 mins before giving up).
The room door doesn't close unless locked, which is a challenge if you're not traveling alone because you either have to lock the other person in the room if you take the keys, or the other person locks themselves in leaving you without keys. I tried leaving it unlocked and it opened while I was sleeping and someone walked into my room.
Poor communication from host. I didn't receive any check in instructions, or hear from her until we arrived in Rome. When I arrived, I called her and she buzzed us into the apartment's first door, but the 2nd door was locked. She didn't answer subsequent phone calls/texts, and about 10 mins later she finally came downstairs to let us in asking why we hadn't come up already. She had us move rooms after the first night to a different apartment, which meant that after a 14 hour trip we couldn't really unpack because we'd have to pack again in the morning. She also forgot to give us the access code to the other apartment so we were locked out. When I called she hung up and said to only text her. She didn't let us know until the morning we checked out how she wanted to receive the Rome city tax, and luckily I had pre-planned for it and had exact change in cash. She mentioned having another job on several occasions, and didn't appear particularly interested in being a host beyond the bare minimum.
