La posizione, la pulizia e lo staff accogliente

Clean and comfortable

A little bit noisy in the morning. Also, there was no shower telephone. Would prefer t have one.

The area felt safe. We liked having a kitchen and coffee maker. Walk to bus stop and grocery was about 5 to 10 minutes. Staff was friendly. AC worked well. Rooms are so expensive in Rome which is why we booked this one; it was more "reasonably" priced. The shower size and shower heads are nice.

The listing is advertised as having a bedroom and living room, but there is only a bedroom with a desk (like a hotel room), though there is a separate kitchen with eating area (but no separate living room). There is major construction happening across the street that is probably years from being complete. Work begins by 7:00 am and is incredibly noisy, so we did not open the windows. While it does have an elevator, there are two sets of doors that must be manually closed in order to operate; if a guest does not close them just right, the elevator will not operate. We had to go up and down 5 flights of stairs several times throughout our stay when this happened. The hall light is on a timer and shuts off after about 1 minute, leaving the hall in complete darkness upon entering or exiting. You have to find a very dimly lit switch on the wall to turn the light on; additionally, our room was at the end of a hallway and the lighting was so bad, even after turning the light on, that we had to use our phones to light up the lock in order to be able to put the key in. There is a washing machine in the room, but 1. the cabinet is built around it and the detergent compartment cannot be opened, and 2. there is no drying rack to dry clothes; in fact, when we asked about the washer, they recommended we go to a laundromat because they said the clothes don't dry well in the room. Internet was unstable. There are no electrical outlets near the bed even though the listing says there are (we even looked behind the bed).
