This was our very first use of Airbnb and it was absolutely fabulous. The location of the apartment was perfect, near the subway, Colosseum, Forum and many great neighborhood (not tourist) restaurants. Victoria took care of us wonderfully, gave us great suggestions, had a little bit of food in the fridge for us, did a special favor for me, and checked in on us midway during the stay just to see how we were doing. The apartment and our host were perfect.

The apartment was exactly as described, with two nice balconies, a great kitchen and living room. The bed pulls out from under the green couch, which was hard to tell from the description and pictures. But don't worry, its not a fold out, its just on wheels and pulls out. It is a normal mattress for two people and was quite comfortable. There were two flights of stairs to climb to get to the apartment (no elevator) but it was fine as long as you know about it and plan accordingly. The air-conditioning worked great, even though it probably wasn't really necessary. Victoria painted many of the paintings that decorate the apartment - fun.
