Max's place is in the heart of Rome without the noise. We were within walking distance of all the places we wanted to go to (Colosseum, Vatican, Pantheon, Spanish Steps, etc) and there are lots of great eateries nearby. Because of our proximity to the Pantheon, we ended 80% of our nights there and were able to walk back without concerns for our safety. This place also includes a washer/dryer unit which we were not expecting when we got there. This was super nice although I think European dryers seem to take a bit longer than the ones we're used to :) But it still did the job and was a nice amenity to have. The building itself feels very safe since there are two locks that you have to get through to get into the airbnb and it's quick easy to find and access if you're coming from the airport. The kitchen has a fridge and a stove which was really nice as well. Max provided towels which we didn't end up using but appreciate greatly. He also kept it really cool temperature wise when we got there which was nice. Our only issue was that we never met Max and we didn't know if someone was going to be there when we go to the airbnb because he didn't ever respond to my text from that morning. We ended up meeting one of his friends to check in which, as two females traveling alone in a foreign country, made us a bit wary at first. We should have probably reached out earlier than the morning of but the fact that we never received any communication back was a bit concerning. I also never received a response to the text I sent when we were departing. Overall, this place was a great place to stay, was priced extremely reasonably, was in a great location, and worked out well for us. We just wish we had a some follow up communication besides the initial email.
