We were provided with a very warm welcome despite being an hour late due to a problem with getting a taxi. The apartment presented as the pictures show - perhaps a little darker, but all beautifully presented and very clean and spacious. The bed was really comfortable and the main bedroom really quiet. We could hear some street noise from the lounge room but it wasn't so noisy as to be a distraction. Elena was really responsive to my questions and provided advice on the best gelato and restaurant places as well as advice on paying for taxi's and organised a car to take us to the airport at a reasonable rate of 60E, so the service was really fantastic.
The location is really central, just literally down the road from the top of the Spanish steps so you are a stones throw from great shopping and the Metro which is really easy to access. Taxi's are also at the bottom of the street so very easy to get around.
I would definitely recommend Elena's flat and it was also good for my 7 yr old daughter who slept on one of the Divan's - there were 3 to choose from, which meant we could have the lounge at night whilst she slept on a bed in the foyer part.
Wifi worked really well and they also provided us a map of the area which was great to get our initial bearings. They also had plenty of books ( a recent Time out Rome) and magazines to browse through if you just wanted to put your tired feet up and relax after a hard day's sight seeing.
Kitchen was very small but we didn't cook any meals there so this wasn't an issue at all for us. There is a good size fridge and washing machine. There is a small elevator to take your luggage up to the 2nd floor ( fits only 2 people) which is helpful if like us, you had some heavy suitcases!
