We stayed one month in Manola's apartment. Rome is such a big city with so many offerings the choosing of a location can be difficult. We are so glad we chose Manola's location which is so near to the Spanish Steps yet out of the din and crowds. It's an easy stroll up to the Borghese Gardens which I enjoyed because I run. The flat, as others have mentioned, is completely outfitted & Manola really has thought of every item you might need. The apartment was spotlessly clean & you can have someone in to clean for a reasonable fee. We did our own cleaning-up since Manola has all the products and full utility closet with every item you could need. Manola is easy to contact for any info or worries and her response is immediate. A plus for us is that our mother requires an elevator and this building has one. There are a few stairs to get to the lift level but at 99 my mother was able to do this. Another plus regarding the location is that the address is just off of the Piazza Barberini which has a convenient taxi stand & metro stop. We walked everywhere quite easily. There is also a small convenience store located diagonally from the apartment entrance and another enoteca just up the street with a very kind and helpful owner. The hotel around the corner has a good restaurant and another restaurant located exactly next door features truffles & it is excellent. As a note there are NO cooking aromas that effect the apartment by the restaurant's close location. All in all we had a great time. There were three of us for most of the stay but we managed space wise. The sofa bed is comfortable! This is a huge plus since so many styles are not. There is a huge wardrobe closet spanning the length the bedroom so we were able to put everything away and store our suitcases above. The bathroom also has ample space for everyone's products and gear. Having the apartment for a month was ever so much better than trying to deal with a hotel and we were happy for the space, details and location.
