Communication with the host, Sara, was responsive and very friendly. She provided great detail & pictures for easy check-in. The description and photos are accurate. We found lugging our full suitcases up a flight of stairs challenging. Immediately upon entering the apt there’s a small glass landing (approx 3’x3’) with an additional 4 or 5 glass steps down to the floor of the apt (as shown in host’s pics)—precarious feeling with heavy suitcases. The apt is spacious with adequate seating and a small table for 4. We did not use the kitchenette. I underestimated our ability to easily navigate the ladder to the loft, esp if the need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night arises or when waking up a little groggy in the AM—it’s a bit steep, narrow (esp near the top due to the wall bump-out) and the rungs are shallow. The bed was adequate. While the apt looked clean, we soon discovered the loft railing, the grout in the shower and the floors needed thorough cleaning (as evidenced when I walked 7 paces from sofa to kitchen in new socks and the hairball). The bathroom lacked a toilet paper holder and the sink was very slow draining. I mentioned these things to Sara; she appreciated me bringing the issues to her attention, so I believe they will be addressed. Since our stay only 4 nights, we wore slippers and wiped down the railing. The location was very good; a few blocks to the bus, easy walking distance to the Colosseum, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, etc.
