i am writing this review whilst sitting in the apartment. This apartment is simply 'brilliant'. The apartment is spotlessly clean, with every thing provided to make your stay as homey as possible. Consumables such as detergent to launder clothes, dishwashing liquid, etc. The wifi was reliable and the air conditioning a welcome relief from the heat and humidity.
This little gem of an apartment has some terrific bonuses for the international traveller. Whilst we all like to think we may not get sick, my husband came down with bronchitis and I got sinusitis whilst travelling from Australia. Don't fear. Within a 5 minute walk is a hospital which has a tourist medical clinic with opening hours of 24/7. They offer an excellent service and free of charge. Better still! There are many pharmacies all within walking distance. To make life a whole lot easier, there is a fresh produce market operating every morning and if you don't want to cook, the area is plagued with restaurants that are NOT geared towards the tourist. The Trastevere is very beautiful, with an energy all of its own. Whilst touring the sites whether by tram, bus or foot, it was very easy. It felt great coming back over the river to escape the tourists and find the 'place' to feel totally at home.
Lombarto is extremely professional, reliable and honest. This makes the booking process very simple. We travelled from Australia and the rendezvous meeting time of 3 pm outside the building was perfect for both parties. It went like clock work.
If I could offer only one improvement, better pillows. Sleep for the tourist is a must and I have to say not one of my family liked the pillows. Something a bit firm and non allergic would be fantastic, as well as 2 per bed. That said, the beds and everything else is extremely comfortable.
I would highly recommend this property and would have no hesitation coming back even with the dire condition of the pillows.
