My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Jacopo's apartment in Rome. It is a newly renovated space, very clean and modern. It is clear that Jacopo takes time to make sure the place is clean and fresh for each guest!
Pros:
-Communication with Jacopo was top notch. Very quick and responsive to all messages.
-Met us personally at the apartment to check in according to our schedule
-Clean and comfortable space, including a comfortable bed
- Lots of information, maps, and recommendations were provided, which was highly appreciated.
-Free wi-fi was great
Cons:
-The location was in a little rougher and dirtier part of Rome. I felt a little unsafe walking with my wife to and from places around the apartment. My wife was getting a lot of looks from people in a way that made her uncomfortable and put me in defense mode. I never felt unsafe inside the apartment itself, however.
-The shower was tough to get to stay in a stationary position, and the temperature didn't get hot enough for my liking, so that was a little disappointing.
-There was a bit of an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom most of the time. It might just be older plumbing. It wasn't noticeable from any of the living areas or bedroom, just in the bathroom.
These cons do not deter me from recommending the place at all, and the pros far outweighed the cons. Overall, we had a good experience. Jacopo is a very kind person and we definitely recommend staying here.
