Yes, we lost hot water and internet. The host would not refund 1 night of the room when we were forced to go to a hotel. We were very disappointed.

Overall amazing stay!!! The only reason for not 5 Stars was the inaccuracy of the listing. My husband and I are traveling through the UK & EU for several months, moving a lot, so we have packed lightly & booked VRBO’s specifically for having a washer. The Views & Location were the reason for the 4 stars! Would definitely stay again, but would come more prepared!

Excellent

This place is one of a kind - it's even better than the pictures. Old properties in Italy all have their quirks, but nothing prohibitive here. It's a delightful place and very close to St. Peter's.

The location was great. Near the Vatican and very nice. The terrace was also lovely with great views of St Peters and surrounding area. Unfortunately the apartment itself was not great. Small and a bit grubby. Needs painted. Sofa had stain marks and apartment smelt of cat urine.

Fabulous terrace and cozy apartment!

This was a great place to stay for our young family of 4. The pictures do not do it justice - particularly on the roof deck. Everything was fabulous and as promised. Though snug, the apartment more than met our needs. Great neighborhood. Quiet at night. We hope we are lucky enough to return!!

Amazing View from Private Roof Terrace

This apartment had everything we needed for 2 of us. Numerous restaurants and gelato shops were just outside the door of the building. The best feature was the roof terrace, however. It was delightful to enjoy coffee or a glass of wine outside overlooking St. Peter’s Cathedral. Having a secluded place to relax in Rome made this a great choice. I contend that the apartment would benefit from some updating, a deep clean and better linens but overall, we enjoyed our stay here.

Great location but let down by tired rooftop area and poor communications

The apartment was in a great location and was generally very tidy but kitchen utensils and kettle where all very basic and old. For example you couldn't even open the kettle lid as it was old and broken. Wardrobes were also in poor condition. Rooftop area was also very old and untidy with pots of paint and ladders left lying around. These items may sound picky in a review but when you're spending more than 300 per night you expect quite a lot more than we found. It could be great with a lot more TLC.

Rome/ Vatican trip

Great location; very nice space; had problems with the door and the persons who stated would be available if we had any questions were not responsive and did not call us with simple instructions to open the door (we waited over 90 minutes in the morning). We finally got assistance from Vrbo (very helpful), but it was a rough start to our vacation. Minus those 90 minutes, it was a great 5 day stay.

romantic apartment

The location of this place is amazing , you can walk and see all the sights , i would not recommend this place for more then two ppl (unless your really comfortable with each other ) the roof top terrance will be the highlight , its peaceful and romantic ..... the only problem we had was with our shuttle back to the airport , he never showed up for the booking we already prepaid for , so we had to fine a taxi a couple blocks away .. but all in all we would recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to explore rome by foot or just want to have the feeling of living in rome ..... the owners were very helpful and have lots of information once you check in .

Excellent location, so-so accommodations

For nearby coffee, pasta, gelato, and sightseeing, you can't beat this location. It's steps away from everything. The apartment itself, however, is quite dated and a bit worn down (mold in the shower, leaky kitchen ceiling and living room puddles during a big rain, washer doesn't drain well) in addition to some oversights like too few towels in the apt (not even 1 per person), no working remotes, dishwasher full of dirty dishes when we arrived, no toilet paper, and a disgusting water kettle -- i think someone had boiled milk in it and it just hadn't been cleaned properly. There was nothing that was a complete deal breaker, but add it all up and it was an inconvenient stay, to say the least. That said, the host himself was WONDERFUL to work with and a complete gentleman.

Amazing location in a beautiful neighborhood

First off, I’d like to say thank you so so much. This stay was crucial in how we spent our time while we weren’t sightseeing. The place itself is located in Prati, a very cute neighborhood by Vatican City. This stay looks exactly as pictured. It’s in an old building, so it’ll come with old building quirks, but nothing so inconvenient that it’ll ruin your time!! Plus, there’s an elevator, so we didn’t have to go up the stairs too many times. I loved the terrace and spent so much time up there just soaking in the view of St. Peter’s Basilica and Castel Sant’Angelo. You can hear the bustle of the city below you as you enjoy a little light reading, a morning cappuccino, and a smoke. Plus, they provide almost everything you need there: dishes, cooking supplies, sponges, detergent for the washer, a drying rack, a blow dryer, an iron and board, a yoga mat, some books, soap, plenty of towels, extra sheets, and WiFi!! Communication with our host was great. We didn’t have any emergencies, but when we did need something, our host was able to get it done in a timely manner. Everyone I interacted with from this stay was professional and friendly. If you’re looking for a great place with a beautiful view, look no further. I’d come back here again!!

Overlooking Basilica San Pietro

This was the fifteenth time that we rented an apartment in Rome and it was really a new experience. The view from the terrace at the roof was magnificent, but the place in itself was not taken care of. It was dirty and untidy. The apartment was nice, especially the quiet bedrom. The kitchen was small and unpractical if you, as we usually do, want to cook at home. When we arrived, the cutlery, the porcelain and the pots were badly washed. After our first five days we begun to have problems with the electricity. As soon as we started the dishwasher, the oven or the microwave oven the power went. We sent a message to the host at once. The day after we were told where to look after the fuse box, at the ground floor. Several power failures forced us for the rest of the time, another five days, to go down the stairs from the fourth floor to restart the voltage protection. We did not use the elevator, since we got stuck in it the first day. Moreover, the last days even the water heater gave up. After ten wonderful days in Rome we left a letter in the apartment with all this information. We also e-mailed and texted it to the host, but have not yet got any response. Since the price for this apartment is quite high we - on the basis of our experiences - hesitate to recommend it. Kind regards Billy & Inger

Worth every penny for the view alone!

This was a perfect location! A couple blocks away from both the Vatican and Castel Sant’Angelo and reasonable walking distance from all kinds of restaurants, mini-markets/grocery stores and shops. The apartment was perfect for a couple or small family (my young adult son stayed on the couch while I had the bedroom) and the views from the rooftop were AMAZING!!

St. Peter’s Basilica is so much closer than my camera makes it seem

Rom 2024

Gut, Lage und Aussicht. Schlecht, Sauberkeit + Küchenausstattung. Die Lage der Wohnung mit der Aussicht auf den Petersdom war fantastisch. Allerdings lies die Sauberkeit des Bades zu wünschen übrig. Der Fußboden (Laminat) vor dem Bad war dermaßen verfault/aufgegwollen, dass zum Teil es nicht möglich war die Tür zu schließen. Zudem war in und vor der Dusche stärkerer Schimmel vorhanden. Auch zwischen der Waschmaschine und Wand hat der Boden noch nie oder Selten Wasser gesehen. Auch die Toilettenbürste war sehr schmuddelig und sollte mal ausgetauscht werden. In der Küche waren gerade mal 3 Frühstücksteller und Essteller vorhanden. Auch ansonsten war die Küche minimalistisch ausgestattet (kein Küchentuch zum abtrocknen des Geschirrs). Gläser waren auch Mangelware (1 Weinglas...). Zusammengefasst ist zu sagen, dass wir für diesen Preis doch mehr erwartet hätten.
