Upon arrival at the Airbnb we were greeted by a very pleasant woman who the owner had arranged to meet us and let us in. Luca’s apartment is very simple but with all of the time we spent away from it sightseeing and enjoying Rome, it was perfect for us. Extremely clean, which is always a must for me, and there were plenty of extra towels and sheets provided! As far as location goes you couldn’t ask for a better spot! We were literally a short walk away from the train station, the coliseum and right down the street from Santa Maria Bascilia. Surrounding the Airbnb were many restaurants and coffee shops, as well as a couple of grocery stores. The only drawback from the location is that it is right across the little street/alley from an elementary school. For us this was not an issue because we didn’t want to waste our days away sleeping, so the kids were a great alarm clock! But be aware if you are someone who likes to sleep past about 7:30 am be sure to bring earplugs to use for bedtime. WiFi is provided, however we had a difficult time getting it to work even once we were connected. Luckily we also had Travel Passes activated on our cell phones which allowed us to use those instead, however that did mean having to use our data. I have let the owner know this was an issue and I am sure he will work to resolve it!
I would highly recommend staying at Luca’s Monte-Colleso and all in all we were extremely pleased with our stay!
