If I could give 100 stars, I would! Paolo is an amazing host, and the location is spectacular. You don’t want to be so close to Rome where there are all the tourists, but close enough that it’s easy to get to all the locations. Trastevere is the place to be, as local transit is within a 5 minute bus ride or 30 minute walk to all the tourist sites. Always rated top 5 places to stay in Rome, and the restaurants are authentic Italian and not tourist traps.
Paolo’s apartment is perfect and very clean. In addition, he picked us up from the airport and drove us directly to his apartment, and had tips for us regarding where to visit (highly recommend the airport pickup as it’s tough to get from the airport to the apartment using public transit). Also, if you have a special request, ask Paolo and see if he can help! There was the biggest soccer match of the year while we visited, between Roma and Lazio which is the “Rome derby”, and Paolo was able to get tickets for us! I wouldn’t have been able to get tickets on my own without spending an arm and a leg...If that doesn’t speak volumes, than I don’t know what does!
Best AirBnB experience I’ve had. 10/10.
