After arranging a collection from the airport through Andrea, we were warmly greeted by both hosts at the apartment. The whole space, communal and private, is immaculately and lovingly decorated and oozes character. The hosts explained their vision for this new renovation and how they have a music theme running through each room. They are obviously super passionate and care deeply about the aesthetics of their accommodation which is lovely to see!
I had mentioned the trip was a surprise for my partner so Andrea had left a bottle of cava in our room as an additional surprise which was a wonderful touch.
Our room was spotless and beautiful. A great size with a super comfortable king sized bed which we slept soundly in every night after exploring the city. We had a view of the colosseum from our window, which fully opened so we could enjoy the view.
The space is less than 5 minutes from the colosseum & Roman forum and in a lovely little area with lots of nice restaurants within walking distance (Andrea provided lots of recommendations and marked them out on a map for us!).
We walked everywhere during our stay but if you don’t fancy the 25 minute walk to Trestevere, 30 minutes to Trevi Fountain or 45 minutes to the Vatican; there is a taxi point right by the end of the street or plenty of Uber’s operating in the local area.
We had a truly wonderful New Year in Rome and this Air Bnb played a big part in that. The hosts were very quick and informative in messages in the lead up to our arrival and friendly and welcoming when we arrived.
I can’t recommend them enough :)
