Let me start by saying Andrea was great. He was waiting at the front of the building for us, and had a great attitude. We needed clothes pins and he got them right to us.
We did not come to Rome as just tourists. We came to be near a health practitioner for a month that my husband would meet with twice a day intermittently. I was at the apartment a lot, there was no sofa and no comfortable place to sit. For our situation it was not a match. Although the neighborhood offered all the necessities and was safe and lots of great pizza and restaurants right out the front door!
The apartment was not centrally located to the tourist attractions. We bought a transportation pass, but it always took a good amount of time to get into the center of town. So when we had scheduled tours we would take a cab, one way the cost was about €13 and there was a convenient cab stand close. We would then use public transportation going back.
The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had most of what we needed. The water was hot when taking a shower and the air conditioning worked well for keeping the room cooled down for sleeping.
So all in all the price was right, Andrea was great, but we needed better seating and would have paid more to be closer to the center of town in hindsight.
