Martina’s place is new and sparkling clean. It’s in a secure building and generally very quiet. Martina was very responsive, met us at check in and was very pleasant to deal with.
We stayed for 3 days so it sufficed in space but left some things to be desired. The bathroom feels like it’s in the bedroom as the toilet and shower are each separated only by a glass door. The sink is in the bedroom. In this regard there is little privacy.
The kitchen is minimal but sufficiently functional. The couch is not particularly comfortable and as there’s no coffee table there’s not much use to the space. The same applies to the enormous terrace, which feels larger than the apartment itself. There are a few essential pieces of furniture but it’s largely empty.
Lastly the location has a few charms or nuisances, depending on how you see it - like a Sunday market that stretches seemingly forever blocking the main street and access to public transit. We generally ended up walking one way to our destinations around the city, about 30-45 min and taking a bus or train back. There are no metro stations nearby. On the upside it’s an opportunity to see a different, more local side of Rome.
