Despite having booked our stay the night before our arrival, Samir's response was very quick and communication prior to our arrival was excellent. Samir and his son greeted us at the door and stayed with us for about 30 minutes as Samir outlined some of the great sites around the apartment as well as some restaurants. We really enjoyed the walking route he recommended, which allowed us to hit many of the "must-sees" in a 2 hour walk.

The apartment itself was also excellent, very comfortable and clean and in a perfect location near St. Peter's Square. We were very happy that we were able to do some laundry as well.

Overall, probably the best AirBnB experience of our 3 week trip! If you're heading to Rome, stay here! Samir really sets the bar for our future AirBnB stays.
