The design of the room and the entire apartment is pretty nice and funky. We stayed at the room named Rhino which is located between the other two rooms. It has a spanish designed balcony which is quite small and narrow but still nice and has a lot of sun during the day.
There is a kettle and a mini fridge in the room which we tried to use but when we turned it on it was making a loud and annoying sound. The floor in the room is tiled and it is a bit cold to walk barefoot or just wearing socks during winter time so it would be great if there were carpets or at least slippers we could use. The bed is not a king/queen bed but two single beds put together so there is actually a gap in between which is filled with some kind of sponge. Still, the beds are not tied up so they constantly move away from each other.
The common space you can use is a kitchen and dining area. On the kitchen counter are always croissants, marmalade, nutella, toasted bread, tea and coffee plus there is a fridge from which you can take milk, butter and yogurts which is a huge plus. A negative side is that you are actually not allowed to use the kitchen because well, it is a common area but it would be good to point that out when advertising the place because you get quite disappointed when you realize you booked an apartment with kitchen you can’t really use.
The location is perfect. There is a grocery shop across the street open 24/7, train station is 5 minutes walking distance and Piazza San Pietro 10 minutes. The main attractions are not that close but that wasn’t an issue for us since we love to walk and wander the streets around.
Both cleaning ladies were very kind, attentive and friendly.
The communication with Valerio was through the phone which I personally didn’t like because it is definitely a non personalized service and it makes you feel you are just a number especially as he didn’t check with us if everything was ok or if we miss something during our stay and after we left.
All in all, it was ok. It’s a good value for money and it has a great potential to become a home away from home place but you need to put more effort and love in your work.
