Mario was absolutely wonderful. He was very helpful and sent out all the information and maps long before our trip and was very accommodating. He also prepared a lovely breakfast hamper for us to have and arranged for us to have gym passes at the local gym (if you're into that sort of thing). He let us make use of the entire apartment (we had our own private bathroom even) and made it his priority to give us our privacy - it was almost as if we had our own apartment in Rome for a week! He was always there when we needed him but was also very much out of our way. Thanks to Mario we had a lovely stay in Rome.

Although the apartment is not in central Rome, it only takes 15 minutes or so by train and is just outside the train station with several lovely shops and a few very local cafe's, so we could explore a different side of Rome. The people at the shop were very helpful and loved our funny accents, and we had fresh cheese and prosciutto every day for lunch.

Overall, we really rated our visit and would definitely recommend Mario to all of our friends.
