Historisches Zentrum - Piazza di Spagna

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Woche in Antoninos Apartment, einzig der Treppenaufstieg war etwas anstrengend.

This apartment was clean and in a great location. We were able to walk to many attractions around Rome. The windows kept out most of the city noise. Antonino quickly responded to our questions. We had a wonderful time in Rome (we stayed at this apartment a month). In addition, the apartment has everything you need (including some guide books and a medical kit). We enjoyed our stay at the apartment.

The apartment is in a good location in the historic center, It is quite large, although there is only one large bedroom. The bed was comfortable. We did not realize upon booking that the apartment was on the 4th floor, with no elevator, so there are many stairs to climb (this was an iissue for my wife who has asthma). Although there is a chairlift the owner did not have access to it. The kitchen is tiny and it takes a long time to get hot water from the tap. The place looked as if it had seen better days (threadbare carpet, broken toilet hinge, portable air conditioners that are effective but require periodic emptying) but despite this it was confortable. Communication with Antonino was good. VRBO or the owner did not mention the tourist tax of 6 euros per person per day, over and above the VRBO total posted price, and in our opinion they should, even if the tax applies to all hotels and all short-term rentals for Rome in 2024.

Location was great, lots of room in the place, it takes time to get hot water, and is up 3 flights of stairs.

The apartment was as described, previous reviews said the bathroom was moldy, that has been resolved. The location was pretty good, great restaurant on the ground floor and a bus station right outside. The problem we had was the air conditioning, or lack thereof. There were 2 freestanding A/C units provided, one for the living room and one for the bedroom. We had them running non-stop while we were home and were never able to get the rooms below 84 degrees. Outside temps were mid-90's during the day and mid-70's at night. Multiple times the breaker would pop when the only thing running were the A/C units, one night we just turned one of them off so we didn't have to keep getting up in the middle of the night. We contacted the host and he said we must be using too many devices. In addition, the wood flooring was so damaged from water around the A/C unit in the bedroom that the boards were sticking up about 1/2" and I almost stubbed my toe on them. This would be a really nice place to stay in the Fall/Winter, but was absolutely unbearable for us in late July.
