We had a wonderful time in Rome. Frederica’s place is in a wonderful location and it’s a charming little apartment. Frederica was so quick to respond to any inquiries. Communication was definitely a highlight.
There are just a few things to consider...
Make sure your flight lands early enough in the day to account for any delays. International flights get delayed often. We got in late and had to pay 50 euros on arrival. We knew this ahead of time, but it added to the sting of having our flight delayed 3 hours.
The trash for the whole building was right by the entrance and filled to the brim. This might be the norm in most Rome spots (this was our first visit), but it wasn’t a pleasant smell entering and exiting the building. The apartment is however on the very top floor so we couldn’t smell it at all once we were inside.
Lastly, most reviews say the shower is small, but just keep in mind that you cannot stand up fully at all. Not good if you’re tall or have any back issues. I’m 5’2 and I couldn’t stand up. Easy solution: sitting down in the bath to shower. I didn’t mind at all and that it was a cute little bathroom, but my husband is 6 foot and never got used it (we stayed for 6 nights).
Overall, I would recommend Federica’s adorable apartment. Loved staying in this wonderful neighborhood.
