This apartment is exactly as described. If you're looking for a comfy home away from home it would not be my first preference - but if you are looking for an apartment in the city centre where everything is --this is the spot for you. We enjoyed being in the heart of the city a moments walk from the Trevi Fountain and just a short trek from fabulous shopping and the Colossueum. IT is a bit noisy at night - so soft sleepers beware, however once the windows are closed I found it easy to get a nice sleep. It is well maintained and I felt relatively safe within the building. The host is relatively inflexible with checkout times (ours was 10 am sharp) --so don't expect wiggle room, but overall a great stay in a beautiful and alive city!
