Convenient, Clean, Comfortable and Central
Giussepe our host was very communicative by email in advance and arranged for us to be met on arrival. He very helpfully provided us with a cot in advance. I had made our reservation via Trivago where I had searched for a property suitable for a couple together with one child and one infant - unfortunately the reservation booking system did not communicate the children in our party, however, our host was very understanding, immediately provided extra bedding and an arrangement was made there and then.
The apartment is on the first floor of a beautiful old block shared with a few other holiday lets and some offices. All other inhabitants were quiet and not intrusive. The building is serviced by a lift - useful for our pushchair. The bedding was good quality, the double bed comfortable and there were plenty of towels. There is sufficient crockery and kitchen utensils for a meal for four if you feel like it (coop supermarket is just around the corner) and there is, of course, the obligatory small stove top espresso maker.
Giussepe furnished us with some great tips for local cucina Romana style restaurants; those we tried were excellent. The location of the apartment is awesomely convenient but with the downside that it is just off the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II - a main thoroughfare with ambulance sirens regularly screeching past. The windows of the apartment are triple glazed and keep out most noise but you will notice it if you are a light sleeper.
Finally Giussepe arranged a taxi for our departure which was a real godsend. Thank you!
