We absolutely loved Marco's apartment! It was very stylish, clean and comfortable. This was our first time in Rome (and Italy, too!) and Marco did everything to make our stay enjoyable. His wife helped us call a taxi (as we don't speak Italian) and his mother, Gabriella was gave us the warmest welcome upon our arrival! She and her husband took us to the little cafe for a coffee and pastry and we felt so welcome! Also, it was my husband's birthday and Marco and his wife had a bottle of wine cooling in the fridge as well as a Christmas cake to help us celebrate! It's the little touches like that that make it so special!
If we ever come back to Rome we will be staying at Marco's apartment again.
