Super amazing experience! The apartment is cozy and clean with a breathtaking view - no doubt you could not find a better one in Rome. Everything was exactly as pictured. The view of the apartment is really stunning. We loved the view from the balcony and on the rooftop. We slept on the sofa bed but it was very comfortable and can enjoy the beautiful sunrise when wake up. It gave us a memorable stay in Rome! The furnishings are very comfortable and the apartment is well equipped with touches like air conditioners, hairdryers, adaptors, shampoo and soap, towels, a big LCD TV with hundreds of channels (SkyTV). Perfect location and very quiet and save area, easy walk to two metro stations San Jovanni and Re di Rom (10 min). Booking, transfers and overall stay ran very smoothly with no problems. Ugo and his wife were so wonderful, accommodating and friendly. From the first communication Ugo provided us with lot of useful information on preferable transport and prices for taxi and metro, the shortest route to get his place. He was ready to pick us up from the metro station but we arrived from Central station by taxi. Ugo met us at the entrance of the building and helped us with our luggage to get 9th floor on the elevator. He demonstrated the apartment and explained how everything is functioning. He kindly served for us on the small table in the room a vase with a flower, cake and sweets, tea, coffee; besides he left for us in the fridge two bottles of wine and lemoncello, juice, water and even milk. It was a really amazing hospitality.
Afterwards when Ugo’s wife joined us they kindly dropped us on their car to the nearest mobile operator shop and helped us to buy SIM cards for me and my wife recommended the best option. Actually it took a while but our hosts waited until we finished all formalities there. They also showed us a supermarket where we made our first shopping. Later this day Ugo provided us with the new iron and ironing board we asked for. He also sent me SMS with the list of the recommended restaurants and supermarkets around our place. He was always in touch with us via phone during our staying and was always ready to help.
On Sunday for check out Ugo and his wife also came together to see us off. They kindly brought some croissants and Ugo booked a taxi for us and waited until the taxi has arrived, in the meantime again offered to drop us to some closest to the airport rail station on his car. Could you imagine how wonderful hosts we met. My wife and I had a great time and did not want to leave Rome! We enjoyed our stay - it was magical and we would definitely choose to stay here next time we are in Rome and will recommend it to all our friends. Grazie mille, Ugo!
