The flat was a nice piece of architecture with the 2 arcs. Location within Rome was just 3 min north of the colosseum. Total size is about 25 sqm, with the bathroom having 2 sqm. The flat is itself located in a dark and uninviting backyard, waste buckets in closest proximity. The flat is below surface level, which results in very low natural light and a humid/damp atmosphere.
The bed is a fine 2 person bed. There was only one gigantic linen provided + 1 fleece cover. For utter emergency cases, a small sofa is present.
The flat was clean on sinks, linen, towels, fridge, bathroom. There were complimentary shampoo and body soap portions. Towels were many, clean and pleasantly fluffy.
Other parts of the flat were inadequate from a cleaning perspective. Windowsills are dust covered. There are 3 vents installed to circulate the air, those are hideously dirty and dusty.
Upon arrival, hot water was not working properly; shower hose leaking.
Both aspects were repaired after a few days. The toilet is partly leaking; when flushing you see a puddle on the floor. The flat had sometimes a feces smell which could also come from the outside, not sure.
The host was fast and very much willing to help. The introduction to the flat was very short, some important aspects might have been not conveyed. Host was kind and allowed us to leave the luggage longer in the flat so we can collect better for our travel.
All in all, I can not recommend this flat in its present condition.
