When in Rome…

Great location when you want something walkable to the central station. A little gritty as you leave the train station but cleans up nice once you reach the church. Apartment was big and comfortable, nice to have two bathrooms. Felt very safe and enjoyed our stay very much.

Great spot

Roomy, clean, quiet apartment that met all our needs. Apartment was located in a less touristy part of town which we loved. Nearby restaurants, grocery store, public transportation made our stay painless. A bit more toilet paper and towels would have helped our family of 5. Great spot for families and couples.

Enjoyed our stay

The apartment was very clean and lovely. The Red ones were nice. There were lots of clean towels and it was wonderful having two full bathrooms. The only small drawback was that the sofa bed was not very comfortable,a s usual, but the other three beds were excellent They were also super great about letting us drop our bags off early as possible. Highly recommended.

Sweet and Charming

We found our stay to be just what we needed cold and comfortable. It was extremely hot and uncomfortable outside, but our apartment was cool and relaxing inside. Very well-appointed for two small families. The neighborhood was quaint and interesting. Just far enough from all the madness elsewhere. I would highly recommend!

We stayed here for one night and it worked out well after we figured out how to get in. It was a little tricky, but we figured it out. The hot water wasn’t turned turned on until we hunted for the hot water heater. Host was helpful and answered questions right away.

Rome in September

Apartment was beautiful, close to a couple of good eats and corner store ride outside for any last minute needs that may come up. Apartment was spacious for 6 adults. Beds were comfy, bathrooms were clean. 5 minute walk to a taxi stand, which we had to take everywhere, unless you enjoy 20 minute walks to every thing, bring comfy shoes PLEASE!!! Check in and out was pretty straight forward. Ran outta toilet paper and had no paper towels in kitchen, quick fix with the store right outside of building. Overall great stay, if want a later check out remember to ask days ahead, owner is slow to respond but eventually will get back to you and is very sweet.

great property!

The apartment was perfect for our family of 5 with teens+. The location is very good, just off a Main Street and near so many attractions. The pictures are an accurate depiction of the spaces. The beds were comfortable. It was great to have laundry available too. We loved the coffee-maker and coffee supply! I would suggest that the owners double check the cookware, it needs to be replaced/updated and also instructions on how to use/turn on appliances-it's different from our home in the US. Communication was good once we arrived, but it took awhile to get responses to questions beforehand which can be stressful as one plans from another timezone and country. Luckily my questions were eventually addressed and accommodated. Overall, I would definitely book here again and I hope I can return to beautiful Rome!

Modern Convenience in Rome

This apartment was one of the most modern places we stayed in during our 17 day tour of Italy! It is located in the Monti section of Rome, an older neighborhood with established stores and lots of locals! If you want to see The Colosseum, this is a great location to make your base——-it is about a 10-15 minutes walk down the street and not a far walk from the train station at all! This 3 bedroom, 2 bath rental was great! High ceilings and very modern! Plenty of towels and all fixtures were in working order! You come into a huge kitchen, which is great if you plan on doing some cooking! There is actually a dryer with the washing machine here, a rarity in Italy! The only thing we couldn’t get working was the WiFi, even after resetting it, but there is WiFi available at stores nearby! The heating works great here too—-each room has its own unit above that we used for heating since it was chilly in March. This would be the perfect place if you have 4 or more and was a great price!

Nice Apartment, but has some issues.

The apartment was nicely furnished and the rooms were spacious. Unfortunately a couple of the AC units in the bedrooms did not work and there was no hot water in the bathroom. Fortunately we only stated one day, so we did not have to endure it too long. There also was no one there to greet us, so we have to figure out how to get into the apartment over the phone. It is in a short alley street, so its not so easy to find. The bar across the street was open till late at night so there was noise to contend with as well.

Great stay in Monti

This was a great apartment within walking distance from the train station. Near many restaurants and shops in the Monti area, and we even walked to the Colosseum less than a mile away. The apartment had all the things we needed including a washer/dryer, and enough rooms to give our kids their own rooms. Great place!

Delightful

We could not have been happier. The apartment was stylish and in great shaped, and matched the listing and photos. It was comfortable for 4 adults; could have added a couple of kids too if needed. The neighborhood was remarkably quiet (also, very solid windows facing the not-busy street). Plenty of excellent restaurants and cafes just a few steps away. Easy to get a taxi. A pleasant stroll to the Colosseum, Palentine Hill and the Forum. Easy communication with Carola for check in and any questions. All-in-all, we could not have been happier and loved our stay. We will definately try to stay here again.
