Edoardo is the perfect host. We have only nice things to say about our stay in his apartment. My daughter and I arrived late at around 9.30pm but he was there outside his main door waiting for us. His sister Margherita had the keys to the flat and we had to wait for her, but rather that wait there, he kindly offer to take us for a quick drink just around the corner from his street. It was lovely, he is the perfect gentleman! He carried my luggage and we went to this lovely square (one of the oldest in Rome) full of lovely and lively people and he left us for a few minutes to return with some cold beers. Margherita arrived very soon and we went to the flat. We had the best welcome ever. He also offered us a glass of cold Prosecco and in the room there was a mesh bag with sweets and a fridge magnet of the Colosseo. Such nice details make you feel welcome and appreciated as a guest.
The room is just as in the photos, the flat is so modern and tastefully decorated. Edoardo showed us our room and the breakfast area, just perfect. Breakfast was included with our stay and he said we were welcome to take water, yoghurt or fruit from the fridge. I really enjoyed a lovely coffee in the morning with a yoghurt, my daughter had some of the toast/cereal on offer. It was just perfect to start the day.
The location is fantastic. You can see the Colosseo from the bottom of the street and everything is within walking distance. We didn’t want to take the underground or buses, the streets are far too beautiful to miss, so we walked everywhere. Edoardo gave us a map of the city and took some time to tell us where buses and underground where and the best place to have a good carbonara. He was really informative. We used his map all weekend.
The flat is so clean and the bed is so comfortable. The street below is not very noisy, perhaps less that you would expect in a capital city.
We feel privileged as to have been so lucky to stay here.
Totally recommend it.
Thank you Edoardo and Margherita. X
