Marilu’s place was absolutely wonderful. It was clean and tidy and well equipped for a long or short stay with a stove top and oven as well as a washing machine and dishwasher to make life easier/your wallet a little fuller. The piccolo of Colli Bolognesi awaiting with chilled glass in the fridge was a very sweet gesture.
Being located in San Lorenzo was fantastic. It’s about a 30-45 minute walk to the major tourist attractions (dependant on which tourist attraction - Colosseum/Forum took ~30 minutes to walk to). This meant that it was quiet at night but also, and more importantly, that many of the restaurants nearby were not tourist traps! I ate and drank at a few of Marilu’s suggested places and was not disappointed. A Carrefour and other supermarket were nearby, as well as a greengrocer. About 15-20 minute walk from Roma Termini.
I will happily rent Marilu’s place in future visits to Rome.
