Thank you so much Gaia and Sara for being great hosts!
My friend and I were met at the apartment on our arrival where we were shown around and given keys. We were provided with a folder of all the information we would need about the apartment, the area, restaurants, attractions, and key contact numbers.
Beautiful apartment on the ground floor ( great that we didn't have to go up stairs with our luggage!) with a lovely shared courtyard. Very secure and safe location, we had no worries at all about security. Less than 10 minutes leisurely walk down the road to the colosseum, with multiple gelaterias and both cheaper and upscale restaurants within 5-10 minutes on the same road too. We definitely did not go hungry! Also a few supermarkets on the road where we bought breakfast items.
Lovely modern kitchen with gas cooker, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine which we utilised. Very comfy bed and lovely decor in the room. Multiple plug sockets which we appreciated and lots of storage space. Excellent that there was air conditioning in the 34 degree heat!! The living room was a lovely lounging space with comfy sofa, very creatively decorated. There was a TV which is great, although we were too busy enjoying beautiful Rome to fully appreciate it! Dining table was used a few times too! Very clean and modern bathroom with a powerful shower- towels and soap were provided!
All in all this was the perfect base for our 5 night stay in Rome. It's close proximity to the colesseum and also the metro ( colosseo stop) made it also easy to travel to other attractions. Thank you again Gaia and Sara!
