iFlat | Luxurious loft

My experience with the management and owner was terrible. I booked the property because the listing clearly stated an 11:00 am checkout. After booking, the management company told me checkout was actually 10:00 am and blamed Expedia. I explained I relied on their posted information, but they refused to honor it and even falsely claimed I was rude. I never requested anything extra—only that they honor their own advertisement. The owner also refused, confirming she was aware. They later told VRBO they couldn’t adjust their cleaners’ schedule. The neighborhood is somewhat sketchy. While waiting for check‑in, my husband was aggressively approached for money right outside the courtyard door. The courtyard felt secure, though the door was often left unlocked. The property looks nice at first, but the musty, basement‑like smell was overwhelming until we bought a candle. It is not luxurious or elegant. If a large mirror placed directly in front of the toilet at eye level is your idea of elegance, then perhaps you’ll disagree. Noise is a major issue—you hear everything from outside and from the neighbors above. The “second bedroom” is an open loft with no privacy and a very low ceiling. The steep, rail-less stairs are unsafe for older adults or children. Maintenance issues exist: loose shower tiles, a broken handheld sprayer and weak water flow from several fixtures. The location is not central; expect long walks unless using public transportation.

Great location, very quiet and comfortable!! Great communication easy to get in

Enjoyed exploring Rome; walking distance to many attractions. Several restaurants, a coffee cafe, and grocery store within 2 blocks.

5 stars

Traveling from the US can be challenging at best. The management company did a nice job assisting with transfer accommodations and the gentleman who met us at the apartment was very pleasant. I would have given this stay more stars but the cleanliness was just a bit off. All in all a very comfortable and convenient place to stay!

Great!!!

The location of the apartment is very good. Near the central station Termini, good restaurants are very close - I recommend staying. The apartment has everything you need.

Martina's place was beautifully decorated and in a peaceful neighborhood. The recommendations from Martina were helpful for restaurants, grocery stores, tours, etc. It was nice to be close to the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Borghese Gallery, and Roma Termini. Since we went to Pompeii for the day and then to Venice, this train station was near our stay which was very convenient. We also appreciated having the stay on the first level and with a washer and dryer to do laundry. Thanks Martina for having us at your very nice place. We hope to return to your place and Rome soon as we definitely want to see more of the area!
