Great little place, super convenient for many sites at an affordable price. Love the ability to get in and out of the property without a key. The host responded extremely quickly to questions, was available all the time and sent checks throughout the day. Place was immaculately clean and stayed cool all the time- very necessary for Rome in July. The place is very quiet and the area felt very safe.
The reasons I may consider a different property next time:
- I am quite sensitive to light and I found at 6:15 (see photo), a lot of light came in and woke me up. I did not mind so much this trip, as I was getting up early and not going to bed late. I asked the host, but the slats on the shutters could not be closed further. Next time- I would bring an eye mask.
- check out is pretty strict at 11am. Not a problem, but to leave luggage, you leave it in the lobby area unattended. Although there are cameras, if something goes missing, there is not a lot that can be done so I found I had to carry around my valuables on the last day (not a huge issue as I only had a couple of hours, but would have annoyed me for the whole day)
- as someone with long, thick hair, I do not need to wash it everyday, so the overhead shower was not that great for me. There is a stick one also, although this was at a funny angle and the button would often pop out and the overhead shower would come on, soaking my hair. Again, not a huge issue (in fairness they provided shower caps).
