The apartment is exactly as described. It is definitely small, but that is no surprise, and everything was charmingly designed and functional.
The neighborhood, Monti, is a great place to stay. We had considered Trastevere, but after having spent time there one afternoon, and seeing how crowded it is, despite being very beautiful, we believe that Monti is definitely the correct choice. It is very alive with businesses and restaurants, and centrally located. We were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go.
We would recommend Orietta's apartment to anyone wanting a charming, efficient space in Monti.
