Mimma and Claudia were great hosts! They responded quickly to our emails and were at the apartment when we arrived. Claudia who spoke English gave us a lot of information about Rome, including a list of good restaurants in the area. The apartment was clean and large, the beds were comfortable. They even had some food in the fridge for breakfast. The apartment was located close to the Vatican and we always felt save walking in that area of the city.

On the minus side, the apartment had no scenic view, the area was noisy at night and the amenities were a little bit cheap: the coffee machine broke, the stickers on some walls were peeling off, curtains were used to hide away items below some counters. On the plus side, the apartment had a combined washing and drying machine, which was welcome after 10 days of travelling, and the building had a small elevator, which was great for bringing up heavy luggage and for one of us who had difficulty walking the stairs up and down.

In summary, we had a good vacation in Rome, thanks in part to Mimma and Claudia's good apartment.
