The apartment looked more or less like photos. It's located one flight up on the first floor. The location was central enough to walk to the Colosseum and Fountain for my family. The apartment was pretty spacious for the five of us. There's not much too the kitchen, only a stove and mini refrigerator. There are two full bathrooms and nicely sized bedrooms with super comfortable beds! Laura's friend, Maria, was our host for the week and she was above and beyond! She was very helpful and patient with us even though we arrived a little late from the airport due to flight delays. Also, on the day we were leaving, we were having a hard time getting a taxi, because of the holiday. She waited for almost an hour with us and finally was able to get us a private transfer/driver. Would recommend for a quick stay in Rome.
