Overall I had a wonderful stay in Lele’s apartment.
Here are the things I thought were great:
- The hospitality: Lele was always so quick to respond to any and all questions.
- The view: this really is the selling feature of this apartment. You probably can’t find a more picturesque view of Rome than this one.
- The Internet: the WiFi in the apartment worked amazingly. Super fast, steady connection.
- The location: you’re right in the middle of Rome and an easy walk to everything.
Now here are a few things that I think could use a little improving:
- The furnishings: the furniture in the living room is quite worn. This wasn’t a huge deal, but I think they could stand to be replaced.
- The balcony: the view is exceptional, as I noted above, but I was surprised to discover that it doesn’t have a table and chairs like in the listing photo. It only had two little lounge chairs (one of which broke during my stay).
- The ironing board: it was completely broken.
- The bathroom: As everyone else has already mentioned, there is indeed an odor coming from the shower drain. I didn’t find it as terrible as some other reviewers, but I definitely noticed it throughout my stay.
In the end, I’d definitely recommend this apartment for anyone visiting Rome for the first time. It’s in the heart of the city and that view really is something special!
