The space was lovely. If you enjoy tiny living or don't mind close quarters then this space will suit you well. It served well for what we needed. We mostly ate out so we didn't really use the kitchen area. On the way back to the apartment from the colosseum there are a few little convenient store shops you can stop in to get some fruit, snacks or drinks to have around the apartment. The apartment comes equipped with microwave, two stove burner, dishes, glasses, silverware and a few pans. We have a 10 month old and we slept in the bed perfectly. I just used the long pillow from the couch to block the railing and I made sure he always slept towards the wall. The couch was very comfortable as well if you get nervous about having children up in the bed. From previous reviews I saw the hot water runs out fast but it wasn't a problem at all for my husband and i to take back to back showers they just had to be short (4-5 minutes a piece). The lighting isn't too bright but they do have an extra lamp if you need more and they also have a heater/air conditioner if its to chilly or to hot in the room. The location of the apartment is amazing! We were able to walk everywhere within a reasonable amount of time. 5-7 minutes to colosseum, palentino/roman forum, 20 to Trevi fountain. Also with the apartment being right on the street the noise wasnt bad at all. The curtain on the window is super thick so we barely saw any car lights coming from the street. We occasionally heard people talking outside while walking by but it wasn't a big deal at all. There are a lot of restaurants right around the block, we especially liked Luzzis. Marcos sister met us for check in and she was so sweet! We landed pretty early in the morning and she let us check in extra early which helped a lot! I definitely recommend to anyone traveling either as a couple or with one-two really young children.
