Maria was such a wonderful host. She provided a few beverages for our arrival, which were most appreciated; had great recommendations for local restaurants; provided a small box of toys for our 4-year old; and kept great communication with us. The apartment was very clean, and the air conditioner kept us cooler than we had been since leaving the states. The espresso machine was such a great touch as well. The apartment is very close to the Spanish Steps and the Metro and there is a great 24 hour grocery store right around the corner. Great, great experience! The space was more than big enough for my husband, Mom, 4-year old, and myself to stay in. Highly recommended!
