We had a wonderful stay at Antonella's, which was a real haven from the hustle and bustle of the tourist sights in Rome. Communication with Antonella was a pleasure: she sent us a list of sights and recommendations by email, gave us helpful and detailed directions to the apartment, and sat us down upon arrival to take us through her notes on suggested restaurants and sights in the local area and central Rome. The apartment is beautifully furnished with restored furniture and lots of details that make it feel like a home. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped and Antonella thoughtfully left us pasta, pasta sauce, breakfast and small cakes, as well as the essentials like oil. The apartment is well-located only a few blocks from the Colosseum, yet it is far enough away that you can find some great local, non-touristy restaurants for a reasonable price. The metro is also only 5 minutes walk away. We would love to stay at Antonella's when we visit Rome again someday, and we have already recommended it to family back home!
