My sister, daughter and I had a wonderful stay in Valentina's apartment in Rome. Her mother was at the apartment when we arrived, even though we were half an hour late, and showed us around and the handover went without hassle.

It is a spacious, beautifully decorated apartment and has everything you could possibly want on a stay in Rome. The wifi worked without any problems, which was very important to us in onward bookings, check-ins and just communicating with family and friends at home.

The location of the apartment is perfect, close to via Nazionale, with small supermarkets and a pharmacy close by. We also had dinner in the restaurant immediately next door and enjoyed our meal and the service.

All the monuments are close and can be reached on foot if you prefer to walk. You can hail a taxi at any time in via Nazionale and go to any of the sites for less than 10 euros or to the Vatican for around 15 euros.

The apartment was an oasis in the heat of Rome's summer as it had double glazed windows throughout and air-con in the two bedrooms and lounge room so we could each control the temperature we liked for our room.

My only comment for improvement would be to investigate the water flow to the shower head and the duration of the hot water flowing to the shower. All the positives with this apartment far out-way this minor problem that I am sure can be resolved.

To sum up, I would recommend this apartment without hesitation, it is fantastic and I would love to stay again but this time for a little longer.
