Stefano and his apartment were great! He was so flexible for us we really felt welcomed from before our trip began.
Our flight from NY arrived Rome really early in the morning, and Stefano let us check early at around 10am! That really helped us relax after having traveled for over 8 hours in need of a shower. He was very easy to talk to over airbnb and had arranged both trips from and to the airport with comfortable rides and fixed pricing.
When the taxi dropped us off Stefano was already at the door. We instantly felt so welcomed to Rome! He helped us move the luggages up 2 levels where the apartment is. And gave us tips on where to eat and where to find great Roman food. We loved the Suppli he told us about!
His apartment is literally in the center of everything! In every direction we took from the apartment we would find one of the landmarks of Rome. But the neighborhood is also very quiet at night, making sleep very easy. The weather in early April was very pleasant we didn't need to use the AC/heat unit at all. There is even a space heater in the bathroom should you need it!
The apartment is charming with enough light coming in from the small balcony, and have spot lights from the really high ceilings.
The bed is really cool that you can use a remote to "roll out", and "roll in" the mattress into the vertical space behind the "head board/shelving". The mattress is a bit thin but still comfortable for a week long stay with great sheets.
The space was just enough for my husband and I with 2 large luggages and 2 small bags. If you have more luggages you would need to roll in the mattress to lay out your luggages. There is a decent size closet with hangers and temporary shelving for our use. Full body mirror is on the door.
The bathroom is a bit tight but very clean. There is no counter space as shown in the picture but arould the mirror there is shelving space enough for us.
Because we stayed for a week, we asked Stefano for a new set of towels. He was really accommodating with our (perhaps unusual) request and have new towels dropped off at our door the next evening. Very help helpful.
