Rome is so massive that location is everything. If you’re only in the city for a few days (as I was), you definitely want to be central, like Angelo and Barbara’s place. It also has A/C, which — if you’re American like me — is so welcome when it’s ~90-100 degrees. The balcony is lovely. I stayed in one night so I could enjoy it. While none of this was an issue for me, a few things I’d note that others may find to be an issue: walking up four flights of stairs, not much room to store your clothes as most of that space is occupied by the owners’ things (I tend to live out my suitcase & was able to hang stuff, which is the most important), small shower that may be a problem for tall/large people (but this is common in Euro cities). I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to use the washer — I had spilled something on my white shirt, so I hoped to deal with it quickly. Even looked up the machine instructions online… I think it may not have been working but I also didn’t asks the hosts for help since it was just one item. The apartment itself is small — I traveled alone so it was perfect for me but a couple may feel a bit crowded. I, however, had a great time and would definitely book here again!
