My husband, daughter, and I just got back from a multi-city vacation in Europe, and of all of the places that we stayed (hotels included), this apartment in Rome was the best. Antonella and Marco were the perfect hosts. They arranged a car to pick us up at the airport and gave us a very helpful orientation session about the city once we arrived at the apartment. They were also considerate enough to have some snacks, fruit, pasta and sauce, and cereal and milk waiting for us in the kitchen. This was very helpful to get us through until we could go to the market. Further, I mentioned to Antonella that we were planning to go down to the coast once we left Rome, and within a day, she had emailed me all of the transportation options to make that happen. In addition to their hospitality, the apartment had everything that we needed to make our stay in Rome comfortable-- an equipped kitchen, hot water, comfortable beds, wireless internet, and a washing machine with detailed instructions. It was also in a perfect location to get around the city.

Everything in the apartment was done out of consideration for the guests, and it was this attention to detail that made the apartment our "home away from home" for a week. I highly recommend this listing (and the hosts) to other travelers staying in Rome.
