The apartment was beautiful and comfortably spacious for four people. The bright, large living room and balcony made it just as great for spending an evening in with a bottle of wine (from the extraordinary nearby enoteca) as it is as a home base for exploring. Happily, the sofa bed was quite comfortable! The location was ideal - near amazing restaurants, within walking distance of many major sites, and down the street from the best gelato in Rome. I did not meet Barbara, we were instead met by Juana. Check in was extremely efficient, and Barbara was very responsive prior to arrival. Truly a lovely place to stay in Rome!
