The apartment is in an absolutely superb location, within sight of the Pantheon and amongst the bars and restaurants of the area. Somehow though it remained an oasis of quiet and calm amongst the hubbub, even in the twin room overlooking the street. It was also nice and cool. Some comments have said the decor and furnishings are tired, but this is reflected in the price given the location, and it was immaculately clean. Luxury it is not but, it is a perfect base and more than adequate and simply huge! . A lot of comments have said the beds are rock hard. This is personal preference, and personally I would not want a soft enveloping mattress in 30 degree outside heat. Communications with Gian were a bit slow to start with but he was having issues with the VRBO app and once we realised we needed to allow a bit longer for a response this was fine. Gian welcomed us personally and made some very good recommendations for restaurants and the best piece of advice, to relax and not feel under pressure to see every last sight as Rome is a living museum - just live it!. He very kindly let us check out late as we had an evening flight. Rome can be stressful, but between the location, the excellent air con, the space and Gians knowledgeable advice this apartment made for the ideal base . Would stay again in a heartbeat.
