Matteo and his brother did a wonderful job of welcoming us to Rome. Despite our difficulties getting there (we were re-routed four times!), we were greeted cheerfully and given an informative tour of the place and the surrounding area, including restaurant recommendations. Matteo was also immediately available via text any time we had questions -- he was always very helpful and responsive. The home was very clean, comfortable and had everything you could want to make a stay in Rome wonderful (including a washing machine and dishwasher in the unit). The location was very central and lovely. We were there during a July 2015 heat wave, and the home's three air conditioning units kept it very cool, despite the fact that it's on the top floor. We were there with our two children (14 year-old boy and 11 year old girl) who both really like their "own space" and never felt crowded. It was a wonderful kick off to our Italy tour. Thanks to Matteo for making this space available, and being such a gracious host!
