Some bathrooms and kitchen items were broken and would need to be replaced. The apartment is quite central, close to bars and restaurants so it can be quite noisy at night.

The location was great. The apartment was spacious with two bathrooms.

The bed in one bedroom is very sqeeky which is annoying. The shower cap is no good.

Host is very responsive, Location is great, Apartment is big.

Air con was very weak and didn't work well. After cleaning the outside unit it was much better but needs to be done properly. It could do with a spring clean and new mattress and bedding on both beds. If these things were done it would be a great experience and 9/10

Location was great, contact was great with the manager, very authentic feel to the place right in the middle of Rome.

The air conditioning only does the living room and not the two bedrooms, it became really hot, even with use of ventilators. The round bed looks fun but is not so big and comfortable if you’re taller. The bath tub was broken and very hard to use, hopefully repaired for the next guests.

Its a super location and neighbourhood, helpful hosts.

Stayed in July 2024

The bathtub flooded and the apartment was very dark, the windows were thin so we were awakened every single morning around 6 or 7 am by sounds from the street like the glass recycle truck or traffic

The location was great and the apartment was a good size with 2 rooms and 2 bathrooms

Stayed in June 2024

First night a bit noisy but other night just general city noise. Facilities could do with updating a little eg kettle and light

Location, authentic, roomy, bakery next door was fab

Stayed in February 2024

The property wasn’t particularly well equipped. No tea, coffee or toiletries which we have experienced in other properties. Also very steep stairs to access the property so wouldn’t recommend for people with walking difficulties.

The location was fantastic. Incredible bakery in the same street and so easy to get around.

Seems a little run down.

Fantastic location with plenty of eateries close by. Good space with well equipped kitchen.

Getting to the bathtub was a bit challenging and it is high for seniors. Not ideal if you have physical challenges.

Great central location and next to a very popular bakery. It is a bit outdated but it has everything you need for your stay. The owner was really nice and accommodating.

Stayed in June 2023

It needs a bit of an update/upgrade to some of its fitnout eg showers and dishwasher could both do with a fit/replacment. But these are minor issues in the scheme of it but it would make a real difference. Other than that loved the place.

Amazing location right in the middle of the old area. The appartment is quiet and comfortable, once you pass the door you leave the street behind.

The owner is so rude and does not want to discuss just wants us to do whatever she wants , so not coperitave , mainly master room bed very bad and old also all the furniture is old. We cant sleep at night and we wake up early from the noise in the streets

The only good thing is the location

This is mostly a direct message to the manager rather than to the public because it's an easy fix and it wasn't really a problem, per se, but I can see types fussier than us finding it an issue: There is an accumulated layer of dust in the less-seen nooks and crannies in the apartment. The higher up shelves and storage platforms are the last place you clean, but it's time to give those areas a thorough dusting and let it start accumulating again from the "zero dust position". Under beds and couches are easier to get at and also need a vacuuming. The general and trafficable areas are fine and clean, it's just the aforementioned spots. I repeat that we didn't have a problem with it, and it didn't detract from our stay but there would be people out there who would think less of the place for it. A guest with asthma or dust allergies, for example, should confirm prior to booking that this has been taken care of.

People had recommended trendy areas like Prati and Trastevere, but we wanted something in a location where we could most easily get a full Roman "tourist baptism", as it was our first visit. This is a great spot in Centro, not too quiet and not too busy. Great little shops, quality restaurants and almost all, certainly enough, of the major touristy spots within walking distance. Roscioli bakery is down stairs and you get to access it for breakfast with no queue. Just wait until you see the queue in the afternoons. If you get in early, the guys behind the counter are friendly and they have a bit more time to chat and recommend their favourite treats. You can get them to make up panini if you want to pack a lunch for your day's journey. Bar Rosanna is across from the apartment. I finally got a smile out of the no-nonsense lady who runs it – I could tell she was a bit annoyed initially that we were buying morning pastries at Roscioli and then coming to her for only cappucini. But I made that up to her by stopping by in the evenings and they make a punchy negroni. It's a good spot to rest and watch your little section of Rome end its day. The apartment itself is of the no-frills variety. Everything works (heating, hot water service, gas cooking) and it comfortably housed and slept a family of five (three boisterous and, at times, exhausted children). If you are looking for luxury it's not for you.

Pretty run down and not well managed. - knowingly rented with a broken shower mixer tap that is missing the lever to turn it (see picture) hence requiring a climber’s grip and finesse to turn it, and lots of patience to get the temperature right. And when you have your hands wet with soap all bets are off, it’s uncontrollable. - Air conditioning unit dated and not powerful enough for the property, lets a trickle of air and barely lowers temperature in the kitchen/lounge. Avoid in summer. - wi-fi not working for the full 7 nights we were there - no supplies provided: one roll of toilet paper, no shampoo or shower gel, not even the customary bottle of water when you arrive - hosts not prepared for long stays, we stayed 8 nights, apart from lack of supplies, no cleaning service in between or even a change of sheets (during a heat wave) - toilet prone to clog, luckily just at the end of the of our stay it started misbehaving. We made it clear to the host the day it happened, we left more than 24h later no plumber in sight and they had a booking just after us. tough luck to the next guest :/ we were only then told you are not supposed to use toilet paper (unheard of in Italy) but no sign to tell you that. - bathtub very tall and hard to reach not suitable for seniors or kids on their own (not that they could anyway given the mixer tap issue). - above a popular ice cream shop and a bakery which is good but they leave lots of rubbish out that then is collected loudly in the early morning - round bed small for two adults. But was fine for two kids

Fantastic location. Very friendly and responsive hosts, went the extra mile to be helpful. Apartment was everything you need. Lots of space, with cosy/characterful feel. Lovely old building with a quiet courtyard. Thank you.

2nd bedroom was accessed off the first bedroom, which meant you disturbed the person in the first bedroom if you needed the WC or needed to use shower. Not an issue I guess for families but when travelling with friends had to change sleeping arrangements and used the bed in the lounge.

Great location, well equipped apartment, excellent communication with owner and easy to check in.

During the middle of the night the recycling and trash trucks are loud, as were the occasional drunk passersby. At times, however, it was very quiet and peaceful. Having such a good location meant being near a very popular fornaio that filled their trash and recycling each day due to sheer volume of customers. I think it's definitely a worthwhile tradeoff but it is worth noting that there's this occasional late night noise. One of the beds was a bit too thin also, not a huge deal.

Obv a terrific location. Pretty surreal to be so ensconced in Centro Storico. The apartment was well appointed, with plenty of comfortable places to chill, sleep, cook or read a book. Really cool classic appliances that allowed us to cook a bit--just enough. Just can't say enough about the location and being able to throw open those shutters to the chatter and excitement of the streets.
