Alessandra's place was in a GREAT location, an easy walk to all the the major sights in Rome. There were plenty of good restaurants and bakeries around and she left many recommendations which were all wonderful. I like to know what I am renting and this house has a very peculiar layout. It worked ok for us, but would really be better for less that the seven people we had as our kids are all teens. It is hard to tell from the pictures, but the bedroom with two twins is very tiny and is connected to another bedroom, so there is not a lot of privacy there. The fold out couch in the loft is above the living/dining room. Not a problem, but again not private. The home is unique and very much what one would expect in Italy. It has upholstered walls and murals painted on walls and ceilings. There are a number of hidden doors and panels with books and games inside. Our kids were very entertained finding them. We didn't spend a lot of time in the house as we were busy seeing the sights, but it was a comfortable house and looks as pictured the photos. And the location was perfect!
