Valerio's home is as beautiful (and spacious) as it looks in all of the pictures. Although Valerio wasn't in Rome at the time of our stay, he had someone else meet us and introduce us to the apartment. He also emailed us multiple guides with recommendations for restaurants, shops, bus lines and more. The apartment is about a 15-min. walk to the Colosseum and all of the surrounding sites and a convenient bus or affordable taxi ride from almost anything else. If you turn on both AC units and close the windows, it keeps the whole apartment cool, though the second bedroom (where the extra AC unit is located) can get sufficiently cold whereas the master bedroom (without one) might not get cold enough. Watch out for a potential power outage. He provides you with instructions on how to turn electricity back on with a flip of the switch on the power board, but this can be confusing if you can't find it.
