Marco's flat near the Colosseum was absolutely perfect. We felt like locals given the apartment and close proximity to great restaurants, and yet were so close to so many of the ancient ruins we walked most of the days. The apartment was clean, much larger than we expected and Marco and his son were the most gracious hosts - providing us with all the best food recommendations as well as being available at all times to help with transportation and helping us to navigate Rome. You'll be lucky if you have the opportunity to stay at this wonderful flat.
