Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is specific — Check-in is only possible between 15:30 and 23:30, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals or early flights.
  • No pets or smoking on site — The apartment enforces a no-pets and no-smoking rule throughout, which may not suit all travellers.
  • Value score is the lowest category — While guests generally find the price fair for the location, the Value rating (7.3) sits below other categories, suggesting it isn't the cheapest option in Rome.
  • No dedicated parking listed — There is no mention of on-site parking, so guests arriving by car will need to make their own arrangements.
