This feels like the best example of Air B&B - staying in the home of a welcoming Italian family. Marco made us feel at home from our arrival, with fresh coffee, local gelato (from Fassi, highly recommended!) and excellent tips of where to eat and how to get around the city. Nothing was too much trouble. We even enjoyed wine and cheese to say farewell to other guests - the hospitality was simply excellent!
The apartment is as beautiful as you see in the pictures. Set in a 100 year old building but renovated sympathetically, the room felt like a high end hotel room with even chocolates at the side of the bed!
The area is very close to the colosseum (10 minute walk) and 5 minutes to the nearest metro which takes you to St. Peter's and other areas.
There are plenty of places locally to eat - Cuccuma is very good value with homemade food and popular with Italians. Panella provides excellent coffee and pasties. Fassis should be visited for gelato! Marco has plenty more suggestions too!
Please do not hesitate to book this Air B&B - you will not be disappointed by the warm welcome and everything the Eternal City has to offer.
