This flat is completely renovated and is on Via Nazionale in well cared for building. You reach the apartment through a large double exertior door that is on Via Nazionale. There is a large common hall with an attendant during normal hours (good security) After walking 20 ft on the left is one flight of stairs to walk up. There is no elevator. If you have lots of luggage be aware. It was OK for us, and our 5 bags .
The interior is almost spotless. The kitchen is newish, well equipped but lacks a microwave. The manager said she was going to get one soon for this unit.
There is plenty of hot water and the air conditioning was excellent. There are one and a half baths, new and modern.
The Internet access was a huge plus. The unit gets access through a Linksys wireless G router and uses a public IP address ( make sure your firewall is on ) and utilizes a high speed connection. I worked remotely using Windows Terminal Services and we used Magic Jack to make calls and it worked as if we were in Miami.
The furnishings are a bit sparse. There are two large pullout couch / beds and one pull out bed / chair, plus two single beds in the main bedroom. My wife and daughter slept on the single beds, and I slept on the pullout couch in the 2nd bedroom. My wife indicated the single beds were very comfortable for her and our daughter.
I am 6'3" and 225 lbs, and the pullout bed was king sized, but not too comfortable. Plenty of pillows and linens. I slept with lots of room, but with my sore lower back it was not ideal.
The windows of the unit are right on Via Nazionale and face the Episcopalian church "St. Paul's within the Walls" one story off the street. They are new, excellent, open two ways and offer excellent views of the street and very quiet when closed. We slept with a sound machine at night and heard almost nothing from the street below.
The area is convenient to the Metro station ( 200 yards east) bus transportaion, a grocery store 200 yards west, and a drug store 100 yards west. There is a very nice bookstore 50 yards east, banks and tons of shopping right there. It is very convenient to use the metro to get to the Spanish steps, Vatican, etc.
Finally, our property manager Nicola was A+++, very friendly, responsive, English and spoke Italian fluently. She was waiting for us at the apartment on our arrival to give us a thorough overview. She is available by phone anytime and even arranged our cab for us when we left.
