Alberto was the perfect host and the apartment was as lovely as I had hoped it would be.
The little touches that made our short stay even more pleasant/straightforward (tea and coffee available plus supplies of oil/salt/pepper) were much appreciated as was the personal effort Alberto went to to have milk and cookies and fruit juice in the fridge since we were arriving late with our two young sons.
The apartment was spotless with brilliant facilities including a washing machine which came in very handy.
Rome was particularly hot when we were there so we ended up spending more time in the apartment than I imagined. The air conditioning was most welcome and the calmness of the tastefully decorated environment made it so relaxing to be there.
We hope to come back to Rome and hopefully to the apartment perhaps in autumn when the city is less hot and busy.
Grazie tante Alberto!
