Mirko communicated with us before our arrival very well and sent us directions on how to get to the apartment. He met us there promptly and explained they keys to get into the apartment (two gates and a secured building door). He explained everything about the apartment and also mentioned the small water heater. The first time I took a shower, I was surprised how fast the water ran out, but I adjusted future showers to have enough hot water. We picked this neighborhood because our son is studying in Rome for the semester and was living nearby. Public transportation is close and frequent, to get to the tourist areas of Rome. The apartment itself appears clean and modern, but when you look closer, the bathroom and kitchen could have been a little cleaner. There is a washing machine in the bathroom that we didn't use and it smelled from water being left in it from a previous occupant. The apartment was plenty spacious enough for the two of us and it was nice to sit on the little balcony and have some wine. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was quiet at night.
