My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful stay in Marcella's apartment. Even though we arrived very late, she was there to greet us and to explain everything to us. Also, she was able to arrange a driver for roundtrip transportation to the airport, which was very nice. As Marcella was an amazing host, the apartment itself was also great too. Location is prime - we walked everywhere in Rome without the need of public transportation. I'd say the farthest tourist site was about 20-25 minutes of walking from her apartment, however the majority of places and things to see is within 10 minutes or less. Also, because her apartment is in a central area, it was very nice walking around in the streets of Rome anyway. Her apartment looks just as pictured and it was more than enough for the both of us. It was spacious and had everything you could possibly need. Air conditioning was a plus during the hot heat of July. The air conditioning unit is only located in the living room, but it was enough to cool the whole apartment and we even thought the apartment stayed quite cool even when it was off. When we would come back to the apartment after a day of sightseeing, it was nice coming back to a place that wasn't stuffy and hot and it didn't take long for the air conditioning to really cool the place at all. As people have said, her apartment is located across a bar that is very popular. People have commented about the noise, however we didn't think it was a problem. We felt the windows kept a majority of the noise out and we had no problem sleeping throughout our stay. Also, just to let others know, there is no lift or elevator in the building. It wasn't a problem to us at all, but you do have to walk up a few flight of stairs to reach her apartment. All in all, Marcella's place comes highly recommended! When we visit Rome again, we would love to stay in her apartment again as well!
