Awesome apartment & location, terrible owner/manager

First, the good. The apartment is awesome! It's located in a beautiful old building on a pedestrian-only street. There are many restaurants and stores in the area and good access to public transportation. We got around using mostly buses and the metro. I can't say enough good things about the space. I would love to stay here again, if I didn't have to deal with Germana Now, the bad. At first, interactions were great -- friendly timely information and reminders. I read literally every word of everything she sent me. When our trip got close, I was told to submit information to Vikey and pay the city tax to get the virtual key to open the front door. I did that and even got an email confirmation that I had paid. No virtual key. At check-in time, still no virtual key. I messaged Germana. I had gotten no sleep on the plane, it was our first day in Rome, and my phone battery was almost dead. I was stressed. After multiple messages, she opened the door virtually herself, without telling me. It was luck that I heard noise in the door and opened it. Once inside, I worried about how to get inside again, forgetting that there was actually a physical key for our use. I asked her about it many times and all she would say is YOU HAVE A KEY! and getting ruder and ruder and asking me to STOP MESSAGING HER. I understood her to mean a virtual key and she never reminded me that it was a physical key. I did read all she sent me but forgot that 1 tiny bit of info. That was our welcome to Rome

Local charm

Germana provided excellent tips on local eateries and attractions in the welcome booklet which was very helpful . Our communication with her was seamless the entire stay, with being responsive and considerate, ensuring our stay was comfortable from start to finish. We loved the vintage charm of this place literally in the heart of St. Peter’s Basilica. She has done an incredible job preserving its character while offering modern conveniences.

Great, great spot with easy access to most of Rome's tourist locations!

What a great place to stay! The apartment was very large and the window opened to the courtyard below that was full of life during the day. It was quiet at night. The street in front of the condo is pedestrian only so there was no traffic noises to be concerned with. 0.25 miles to the Vatican, easy walk to Trevi fountain and the Colosseum and PLENTY of delicious restaurants and gelato places within a 3 minute walk from the front door. The host was terrifica and always got back to us within 5 minutes with questions. I would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Rome! We will look to book here again when we return!

Excellent location

Location was perfect. Plenty resteraunts and cafes on the street. Wonderful neighborhood. Kind of central to a few destinations such as the coliseum and Vatican. We didn’t mind walking though. Host was quick to respond when needed and set up transportation to and from the airport.

Great location and price for Rome!

Location, location, location! This apartment is a short walk to the Vatican and is on a walking only street lined with shops and restaurants. The room was a perfect location for our daily trips and sightseeing. The bathtub is extremly narrow, taking a bath would be a problem and it was a bit small for my 6'2" husband. The shower was sufficient, the water heater it working perfectly. Everything was very good. NOTE: make sure your phone works as it is how all communicate. You can get a sim card in the airport by the luggage carousel very easy. I would stay here again.

LOVED this place. The location was PERFECT. I was a solo traveler and I could not have asked for a better location. The street was lively. The street had great lighting without being a problem inside the apartment. I felt safe at all times! There was a water fountain was across from apartment- you could refill your water bottles. The apartment was cute. It had a washer that really helped and a drying rack in the tub. The bathroom was nice. The tub was very very narrow. LOL You had to turn sideways. BUT I would stay here again and HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend it!

A perfect location from which to visit the Vatican!

My wife and I had a terrific stay in Germana and Sarah's 1st-floor apartment (above street level, up only one flight of stairs). Special thanks to Sarah who waited for us since we arrived quite late on check-in evening. This apartment's location, just outside the ancient city wall, is ideal for visiting the Vatican and Castel Sant'Angelo - a 10-minute walk in either direction. The pedestrian-only street on which the apartment is located is in an active neighborhood with many restaurants (lots of good food), gelato shops, and a city-supplied (always running) drinking water fountain (very safe) just across from the apartment. The apartment was furnished quite nicely and stocked with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay even though the bathtub is a wee-bit narrow!

Situación Inmejorable. Menaje escaso

El apartamento se encuentra situado inmejorablemente, en una calle animada y llena de restaurantes, muy luminosa para lo que se estila en Roma. El acceso es mediante una clave que llega al móvil, que abre el portal exterior. Está situado en la primera planta. La llave se recoge en una key box en la misma puerta. El apartamento es suficiente para dos, tranquilo a pesar de su ubicación. Puntos negativos: el menaje es muy escaso y la bañera es súper estrecha e incluso peligrosa. El resto está bien. La cama es cómoda, y aunque no nos hizo falta, hay aire acondicionado y calefacción. Un apartamento donde destaca su ubicación

Great location with beautiful street music.

We had a great time in Rome and we were very satisfied and comfortable in the appartment. We enjoyed the location, close to Vatican city and other great sites in Rome. We had beautiful music from street performers, lots of restaurants and geleterias nearby. Everyone in neighbourhood were very nice and friendly. All was great with the Vrbo rental and host Germana was great to deal with. She was very helpful and answered all of our questions. Thank you for making our stay in Rome enjoyable and great. We strongly recommend this appartment.
