The host was very nice and helpful and left drinks and some light snacks for us. Great family space and good value if you are in very good shape as our 3 generation family was. The description does not reveal the need to climb 4 long flights with heavy luggage up many steep steps to get there. It makes it very difficult to leave and run back to the apartment for coffee or to drop off purchased items, go to the bathroom, etc. The plumbing was particularly loud. Has privacy and a nice view. Good restaurants close by. Pantheon is steps away.
