Mario was a fantastic host! He answered all of our questions and was there when we checked in. His communication is great and made sure we had everything we needed. He even sent me the holiday schedule for the train system. He sent us easy to follow directions to the apartment also. Like other reviews have said the surrounding area is a little sketchy looking, but I feel like all of Rome is somewhat like that. The apartment itself was beautiful, and very well done. I loved that there were 2 bathrooms. It is very close to the train station, and the trains are very easy to use. This was our first time in Rome and we never got lost. All in all I would definitely recommend this property.
