My wife and I really enjoyed staying in Michele’s apartment by the Piazza Argentina. Despite some weather issues causing us to arrive a day late, Michele was very patient and adjusted his schedule so he could still be there to meet us the next day. He helped us orient ourselves by pointing out directions to some of the major must-sees nearby. Really nice guy who clearly takes pride in his rental properties.

The apartment was small, but very well laid out to maximize the space and make it feel larger than it actually is. However, its location is by far its biggest advantage. Located right on the edge of the old Jewish Ghetto (which was really cool to wander through) and within a reasonable walk to all of the things we wanted to see, we found the apartment convenient enough to come back to for a brief rest in the afternoon before heading back out to see more.

One clarification on the listed amenities for the apartment: Wi-Fi is listed as available, but the Wi-Fi access is through a usb-stick device that plugs into a laptop. It is not smartphone/tablet/iPad friendly. That said, we were able to find a few open Wi-Fi networks that must belong to neighbors if we stood in the right places.

My wife and I agree that if we ever make it back to Rome, we’ll look again for Michele’s apartment by the Piazza Argentina. Great experience.
