Apartment is well located and well equipped for a short stay in Rome. However, apartment is very small. Although this is communicated, it is much smaller than the photos would lead you to believe. It is also much darker, with little to no natural light as windows are small, high level and covered with a guard. Apartment was clean, but very dated. The bathroom is definitely in need of an update. There were loose sockets throughout and a light switch hanging off the wall which is unacceptable as it is dangerous especially considering it’s location inside the bathroom. Ventilation of bathroom is also very poor leading to dampness throughout the whole apartment. This was evident when returning home to damp sheets on the bed. Location makes up for this somewhat, but if the weather had been bad, it would have been an uncomfortable stay.
In terms of value for money, we did wonder if we were being overly critical considering the seemingly reasonable price. However my sister was also visiting Rome at the same time and stayed in an apartment only 10min walk away for the same price (and no cleaning fee) and this was a much nicer, up to date and well ventilated apartment.
Apartment has potential, but needs updating of, at the very least, some basic fixtures (sockets and heating / ventilation system). Would not stay again in it’s current state.
