Mr Alberto was a very kind host and even bought an adaptor so I could use the hairdryer. The apartment is in an excellent location- near great areas of Rome. The apartment is very dated, there is a foul smell coming from the bathroom, the water did not drain away from the shower, there is limited light coming in to the building, and it is very noisy from the neighbours upstairs and the streets around. Overall, I think this should be better reflected in the price, which was extremely expensive for what it is.
