Fabulous terrace and cozy apartment!

This was a great place to stay for our young family of 4. The pictures do not do it justice - particularly on the roof deck. Everything was fabulous and as promised. Though snug, the apartment more than met our needs. Great neighborhood. Quiet at night. We hope we are lucky enough to return!!

Rome/ Vatican trip

Great location; very nice space; had problems with the door and the persons who stated would be available if we had any questions were not responsive and did not call us with simple instructions to open the door (we waited over 90 minutes in the morning). We finally got assistance from Vrbo (very helpful), but it was a rough start to our vacation. Minus those 90 minutes, it was a great 5 day stay.

Excellent

This place is one of a kind - it's even better than the pictures. Old properties in Italy all have their quirks, but nothing prohibitive here. It's a delightful place and very close to St. Peter's.

Excellent location, so-so accommodations

For nearby coffee, pasta, gelato, and sightseeing, you can't beat this location. It's steps away from everything. The apartment itself, however, is quite dated and a bit worn down (mold in the shower, leaky kitchen ceiling and living room puddles during a big rain, washer doesn't drain well) in addition to some oversights like too few towels in the apt (not even 1 per person), no working remotes, dishwasher full of dirty dishes when we arrived, no toilet paper, and a disgusting water kettle -- i think someone had boiled milk in it and it just hadn't been cleaned properly. There was nothing that was a complete deal breaker, but add it all up and it was an inconvenient stay, to say the least. That said, the host himself was WONDERFUL to work with and a complete gentleman.

Unpleasant experience

The property was not as nice as it looked in pictures online. There was no television, no hot water and some sheets did not look cleaned. The hallway smelled and the property manager went silent on me when we checked out and asked for at least a days refund. We moved to a hotel down the street because we needed showers.
