The apartment exceeded our expectations. It was in walking distance to the Roma Termini. We had breakfast in everyday as there was a market nearby. We were able to experience an apartment building with such character. From the entrance door to the elevator to the gorgeous windows overlooking the street. We walked all over Rome and were able to see so many things from Ancient Rome. We even found a park nearby. So glad they shared this with us.

Excellent Location
It was just as described. The neighborhood/street looks a little sketchy but we felt perfectly safe there walking around. Plenty of hot water, air conditioning, comfortable beds (for any Americans the 2 "double" beds are closer to a king in America so those are very nice). Lovely cafe just to the left of the entrance where we bought morning coffees and pastries. Close to the Termini station so super easy to catch the Leonardo Express from the airport and walk to the apartment. Excellent communication and super easy check-in and check-out. I would definitely stay here again.

Large Apartment in a Good Location
First of all let me start by saying the owner is extremely responsive. He arranged transportation for us to and from the airport which was a great added touch! Whenever we had questions he was quick to respond.This apartment is located about a 15-20 min walk to the Colosseum . It is a 5 min walk to a fresh market with fresh produce, cheese, meats, spices, baked goods and more! I had some of the best fruit in my life from that market! There is also a little coffee and pastry shop right below the apartment. The kitchen was nice and big and even had a dishwasher which is rare in older apartments like this one. It has very basic cooking supplies. Nothing too fancy but just enough. They provide coffee, sugar, oil, vinegar and some basic Italian Herbs. They were also kind enough to leave a large bottle of juice and water in the fridge for us when we got there! The beds can be arranged in several ways. Essentially he has 6 twin beds but can combine them to make 3 king beds. A large bed was important for us since my husband is quite the bed hog! The other great thing about this apartment is it has 3 bathrooms! That is also rare to find. The apartment is older but gives you those Italian living vibes that make it quaint. Overall our stay was great!

Great apartment!
We really enjoyed our stay in Esquilino. This apartment was very spacious for our family of 5. Having three bathrooms was fabulous! The neighborhood was convenient to the train station (where we also caught the bus). We had no issues with the location and felt perfectly safe even at night. It is not a touristy neighborhood so people should keep that in mind. We enjoyed the Sri Lankan restaurant around the corner. They were open on Christmas so it was a great place to get lunch that day! Would definitely stay in this apartment again.

Great Apartment in so-so neighborhood
The apartment was perfect for our family of 5. The location is close to the train station, which was great for our arrival in the city and going to the airport (much better than a taxi!). HOWEVER, be prepared to walk A LOT to see the monuments (fortunately, we love to walk).
The neighborhood looks kinda shady, but we always felt safe walking around. Thankfully, the building has a (typically) small elevator, and it works well. The apartment is huge (3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, plus a living room and a big kitchen). There is an in-unit washing machine, but no dryer, but a drying rack is provided. Each room has a separate A/C unit, so everyone can feel comfortable. Water temp in the showers is somewhat inconsistent. The host was outstanding with communication and check-in was a breeze.

Seeing Roma!
The apartment itself is HUGE! It is also clean and well appointed. It is a short walk to the main Trimini train station. That said, and really the only negative, is that the area is dirty and not very nice. If you could move the apartment to another location in Rome, it would be perfection...but as it is, I wouldn't stay there again.

Near Termini
Andreino was great. Explained everything and gave us information and recommendations.
Would have been nice if there was a toaster and a coffee capsule machine like an nespresso machine. Apartment was very large and comfortable but could use some freshing up like some repairs to the walls and fresh paint.

Large apartment convenient location
It is a large apartment located near the main train terminal in the heart of Rome. There is easy access to the subway system and buses, which made getting to the rest of Rome a breeze. The host was very gracious and provided a useful recommendation list for food options around Rome that never disappointed. The market, grocery store and gelateria nearby were great finds for us. The host arranged transportation to and from the airport, this was excellent. We don’t give a full five points because the showers did not stay consistently warm, and the toilets did not flush well. We were there in December and the heating worked well, and the elevator was a blessing for getting to this 5th floor apartment (that is floor 4 in Italy where the ground floor is 0)

Great flat for families or friends
While the flat was perfectly adequate and met the needs of the three couples in our group, it is in a neighborhood that requires a lot of walking to most monument areas. The neighborhood looks shadier than it is; we felt safe walking around for the most part, but once we entered the building, we felt completely secure and safe.
A note for Americans: while the home does have in-unit laundry facilities as advertised, there is a washing machine, but no dryer. Dryers are not common in Europe.
The Air conditioning worked well, and was much appreciated during the sweltering heat.
The water pressure and water temperature in all of the showers was inconsistent. Washcloths are not provided, but clean towels are.
There is a fantastic coffee shop just next-door.
The host and hostess were outstanding with communication and check-in. We appreciated their flexibility. They had taken extra strides to be hospitable and kind.

A Great Stay
The apartment itself is a wonderful base to visit Rome, so long as you can make your way to the Metro station situated in the Vittorio Emanuel Park, about 10 minutes away. Once we were able to navigate our way to the Metro, all of Rome was at our disposal. There is a great huge vegetable, fruit, fish and meat market down the street. It is a must for cooking in the apartment. The kitchen was a little sparse for cooking needs, but we were able to make make full dinners or lunches. We found our way to the St. Lorenzo neighbourhood for authentic Italian (non-touristy). A wonderful bakery exists on the far end of the Vittorio Emanuel Park. Andrea and his team were superb hosts. I would book again.

Nice stay but not handicap accessible.
Several days in Rome before a cruise.
The area is Rome and the restaurants not overpriced.
We booked an extra day because half of us arrived early in the day. The one disappointment came on our last day. We were under the impression check out was 10 am. But we were asked to be out before that. The other thing was I use a mobility scooter that folds. Even folded it had to be put inside sideways because the door is not very wide unless both are open and we could not figure how to do that.

The location was very conveniently located near the Rome central rail station (Termini). The neighborhood appears spotty but we found it to be very safe, and within walking distance of many sites and restaurants.
