We are best friends traveling together and had Federico arrange a private car pickup from the airport, we found the price to be comparable to a taxi but without the hassel of finding one ourselves.
We booked last minute, Federico was super efficient and responsive to our inquiries. We were met by Federico's staff, Catherine and Zoubi (he advised us that he would be away from Rome at the time but his staff would be there to help us). They were super helpful and explained everything from how to operate the oven to going over the map of Rome and how to get to different touristic sites and also provided us with a tram ticket to use for that day.
They also gave us plenty of suggestions for grocerie shopping and where to eat close by. Suggested restaurants were fantastic, being that the location isn't overrun with tourists and had a more local vibe.
The location is very accessible to Piazza Venizia and the Vatican (by bus). We found it a 15-20 minute walk to the Piazza Venizia (google told us half an hr).
The apartment was very clean, spacious and private. The bathroom was super clean and we had lots of towels and soaps and shampoos left for us (they even left us shower caps!!). Definitely no skimping on the amount of towels given! The shower was hot and had great water pressure. Nice big bed, comfortable and easily sleeps two. The apartment was more than enough for two people.
There was free water bottles (still and sparkling), jams, juice, tea and coffee along with milk and sugar were provided for us free of charge for breakfast which we were delighted with. Kitchen was fully equipped and was easy to use.
We were surprised at how thorough the daily cleaning done by staff was (eg. we were waiting to do a full load of dishes towards the end of our stay in the dishwasher and came home to see it had be loaded and turned on for us). It was honestly equivalent to hotel housekeeping (thanks Zoubi!!).
Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay and would definitely come back. Thanks Federico!!
