You could not ask for a better location for a base to explore Rome.
When we saw the price, we were half expecting a hovel. This could not be further from reality.
The apartment has everything you could ask for for a a city break. The rooms are large enough to not feel cramped, and the apartment is well laid out and clean.
We found a couple of tiny issues, a couple of the doors can knock against things if not careful, and the wifi was a little spotty at peak times. But if you spend all your time on the net in the room, you're doing Rome wrong.
We didn't meet Andrea in person, as he was away when we picked up the keys from a friend, but he could be more helpful over email.
If you're going to Rome, and don't need a spa hotel, this is a first choice apartment. We would 100% book again.
