Riccardo was a great host, he created us and showed us everything we needed to know for the apartment and was quick and helpful with communicating with us. We had booked tours already but he said he was able to help us with booking anything else if we needed it which was very nice. The apartment is not as quite as nice looking in person. I take all Airbnb photos with a grain of sand but the mirrored cabinet in one bedroom has big cracks in two of the doors. It looks much bigger in the pictures but honestly it’s not a big deal because you don’t want to spend much time inside in Rome. It’s a 10-15 min walk from the station and then another maybe 10mins to the Colosseum so the location is absolutely perfect. The only big issue we had was the stairs. We were traveling with my 65-70 year old parents who really struggled with the 3 flights of stairs. It says first floor but in Italy the first floor is not the ground floor. We had to carry their bags and suit case in and out. Going up and down for them every time we came and went was really a challenge. If there was a more accurate description of this I don’t think I would have booked here because I was traveling with older people. So just keep that in mind if you are older or not accustomed to climbing lots of stairs. It wasn’t an issue for my husband and to go up and down as we came and left but brining our bags in and out wasn’t the easiest and we are avid hikers.
