We arrived a bit earlier than expected and Barbara told us we could drop our bags while Helene was cleaning that morning. Helene is a pure joy - she speaks 3-4 languages and had tons of useful information - like her suggestion to eat at Osteria Fortunata. She definitely made the trip more enjoyable. The location of the building is great, not too much noise; the mattress was great, and we got good sleep and we had a great stay. I would definitely recommend this apt for friends visiting Rome.
