Hands down the best airbnb stay I've ever had. I wish I could rate it higher than 5 stars.
Location -- This really is seconds from the Pantheon. But also great is that it's pretty central for walking to everything you'd like to see. It's very walkable to The Vatican, The Colosseum, Trastevere, etc.. We only ever used a cab to get to the Catacombs, which are quite a ways outside of the city. I couldn't imagine a better location.
Apartment -- Again, perfect. It's shockingly large, and would be very comfortable for 4 people (and could fit 5). Very comfortable, and has a washing machine. Very clean as well. And, amazingly, even though it's so close to everything, it's also very quiet inside. There's even a grocery store right around the corner in case you'd like to have a meal at home. And that's the key word -- it really did feel like home.
Hosts -- Max and Tina are, quite literally, the perfect hosts. Max met us at the apartment when we arrived and gave us a tour of everything we needed -- and even left us some welcome snacks. They left a list of restaurant recommendations (which you should use!), and they also provide contact information in case you need anything. They helped us arrange a covid test, and a very early ride to the airport (the airport ride was so nice as well). They are by far the best hosts we've encountered on Airbnb.
Overall -- I have been home for a day, and I'm already telling friends and family that they should look at this place when in Rome. If we are ever lucky enough to get back to Rome, we may literally plan our vacation around availability of this apartment. It really is that good.
Max, Tina -- my deepest thanks for hosting us at your delightful apartment, your kindness, and your thoughtfulness. Our stay in Rome was amazing, thanks to you.
A note about Covid tests -- for folks who need to test on their way home, there is a Pharmacy that does tests literally 100m away. It was quick and easy, and only took about 20 minutes. Price was 22 Euros per test.
