Our host greeted us as we pulled up in the taxi. The appartment was as expected: rustic and charming, very Italian; wood beams, tiled floor, high ceilings, overlooking an enclosed courtyard. The little balcony was just right for breakfast in the mornings in the sunshine. Good shower. It was very quite at night in spite of being so close to the Spanish Steps. The bikes seemed a good idea but, as appartment is so well situated, there wasnt much need for them. In fact the Italian driving style may make it less safe than we are perhaps used to.
