My mother and I spent two nights at Riccardo's flat. It was my mother's first visit to Europe and I was anxious because I wanted her to feel comfortable. Riccardo was the perfect host! He met us earlier than the standard check-in time and gave us lots of information about the neighborhood--including maps, suggested walks, and restaurant recommendations. He even had complimentary wine, fruit, and cheese for us! The apartment was very clean and comfortable. We used the kitchen to prepare breakfast and found all the utensils and pans we needed. Most importantly, the location is perfect for touring ancient Rome. Thanks to Riccardo, my mother felt safe and welcome in Rome. We highly recommend that you stay with Riccardo!
