Staying at this wonderful apartment made our visit to Rome even better. Ortensia was the best AirBnb host we’ve ever had. She was SO responsive, beginning with sending detailed check-in instructions and recommendations for the area about three days before we arrived. She checked on us daily to see how everything was and if we needed anything. She was also incredibly responsive when we asked her for additional recommendations.
The apartment is so quaint and in a perfect location. The neighborhood is truly steps from the Vatican, but not touristy at all. There are restaurants and cafes all around. Everything is very walkable — we never took a cab once (though we thoroughly enjoy walking). We’re also big runners and were easily able to find a path along the Tiber River, just a few blocks away.
It was especially nice to have a washing machine in the apartment, especially since we were in Rome for awhile.
We fully intend to stay here again. Loved everything about it!
