You won't find a better location than at Paolo's place. The view of the Coliseum as we walked out the door each day was breathtaking. Restaurants, markets and coffee shops are all within walking distance, as well as the Coliseum.
The apartment offers the perfect Italian experience with a lovely courtyard and shutters that can be opened wide to catch the breeze. The beds were very comfortable and the newly remodeled kitchen and bathrooms were very nice. The apartment had everything we needed including a coffee maker, microwave, washer/dryer and AC.
There was a concern with lack of communication which I believe Paolo will improve.
That was the reason for the four stars instead of five, but I would be happy to recommend this lovely apartment for a vacation in Rome.
