The apartment is exactly as pictured and is very clean. The location was perfect for my needs. Marzia arranged courteous & efficient transfer to and from the airport and responded to me in a timely manner. I did miss cable TV but maybe that is a good thing since I was in Rome to learn Italian. If I return to Rome for language studies, this apartment would be my first choice. I would probably ask for more instruction on operation of washer & dryer, and more direction on disposal of trash.
