Paolo’s place is amazing in every way. Firstly, the location is perfect. You can walk to the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and other sites. There’s a tram stop right in front and a metro just 5 minutes away and a park opposite. A range of restaurants are just around the corner down pretty streets and an amazing cafe (with the best fresh croissants!) is diagonally opposite. We spent mornings eating fresh croissants on the beautiful roof terrace, which brings me to one of the highlights... the roof terrace! It really is spectacular. The views are breathtaking throughout the day, but especially at sunset. I took so many photos!! It’s just unreal.
Inside the apartment, it’s very comfortable. Fully equipped. We stayed longterm and it had everything we needed to cook and wash clothes. The dryer was very useful during the winter season. It’s a simple apartment but comfortable and has modern bathroom and kitchen. Even the views from the lounge and one of the bedrooms are breathtaking.
If you want to self-cater, the kitchen is full-equipped and there’s a carrefour express just a 10 min walk away and other shops with fresh meat and produce. We have been able to do everything we need either by walking or jumping on the metro/tram/bus if venturing further out.
Last but not least, Paolo is a great host. He was so welcoming and always responded immediately. We ended up staying for months even though it was not our intention! You really could not find a better host!
