Unfortunately, we can’t say our stay here was very pleasant. To start, there was a raw sewage leak in the entrance of the apartment that hit you in the face every time you walked into the building (it definitely did not make for a great first impression) and permeated up to the third floor where the apartment is located (note: there are only stairs leading up to the apartment for all you heavy packers out there). This also made it difficult to get our luggage in and out as it leaves very little space to navigate your stuff.
Don’t get me wrong, the apartment itself is charming and has so much history I can’t even possibly begin to conceive. But with this historical apartment comes many outdated things. The bedroom shower was so outdated that we thought we would use the newer one in the guest bathroom. That was a mistake. The shower backed up with water almost immediately whenever we turned it on, and with the raw sewage leak downstairs, we couldn’t help but feel even dirtier getting out of the shower than going in. We also got a whiff of a raw sewage smell in the kitchen whenever we flushed the toilet. Yikes.
Amenities were lacking as well, and what we did have— towels, sheets, etc.— could have been as old as the apartment. Dishes were covered in dust, and coffee was completely molded over.
The location was conveniently located next to the Trevi, but if we were to go back to Rome, we’d opt for a cleaner, less touristy area.
If you are staying for a night, MAYBE two, it could be a cute, rustic option. But three nights was personally a few nights too many for us. Can’t say we would stay there again.
