The Good:
- Great location near quaint restaurants, shopping boutiques, and main attractions
- Access to public transport (bus)
- Linda, who hosted breakfast/room cleaning, was sweet and very helpful
- Building and room is charming in classic Roman style
- Functional A/C kept room comfortable
- Clean, fresh linens
- More affordable than hotel alternatives but you get what you pay for (see below)
The Not So Good:
- Apartment is dated and in need of some repair (e.g. floor pieces dislodging, nails sticking out of woodwork, low water pressure)
- Door locks were not adequate. You could not deadbolt from the inside.
- No shower. Need to use hand wand in bath tub that has no mount. Water ends up all over the floor.
- Safe isn't mounted to anything and can be easily carried away
- There was major construction right beside the apartment that started daily at 6:30AM
- Room is very small. No sitting area
- While Linda was very attentive at breakfast, the same limited items (pastries, bread, cheese and cold cuts) were served daily and become progressively more stale over the stay. Fruits/Yogurts/Eggs would have been a nice addition.
