Having originally decided we would stay in a hotel we were so glad that we instead chose to look at Airbnb instead.
We spent a week at Carpe Diem at the end of May on a sightseeing holiday and enjoyed every minute of our stay.
The apartment is amazing and is nicer than the photos. The rooms were light and airy with more than enough room for our family of four. Charging points in all the rooms was another bonus especially when holidaying with children.
The Patio was also beautiful, our only regret that it wasn’t always sunny enough to sit outside.
The apartment caters for every need. There is a washing machine, clothes airer and a well equipped kitchen if you want to cook.
Location wise, the area is perfect. It is between 2 metro stops both of which are less than 10 minutes walk away. A Lidl supermarket is across the road and there are numerous restaurants within walking distance.
What made our stay here perfect though were our hosts, Arianna and Moreno. Having arranged a taxi on the first night to pick us up from the airport they then waited to welcome us to their home despite it being nearly midnight.
They were able to give us plenty of information about their city, offering advice about places to eat and the best ways to travel around the city. They were also quick to reply to queries that we had throughout the week and went out of their way to offer further recommendations for places to visit outside Rome.
We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend it.
