Alonso is such a terrific host because of his quick and polite responses. We are truly grateful that his 2-bedroom flat far exceeds our expectations. His unit is in a nice neighborhood. Everything is almost perfect except for a few things/suggestions that the homeowner might want to consider.
It would be nicer if a brighter light is to be installed near or on top of the full-length body mirror so the occupants can see how their appearances look before leaving the flat/unit.
I also suggest not putting any breakable vase on the top shelf of the wooden shelves near the toilet.
Overall, everything is wonderful. The beds are comfortable, and there’s enough space to pack and unpack our 4 large baggage. There’s even a corridor, that leads to the 2 bedrooms, which can be used as the place to leave your used shoes so you do not have to bring them inside the rooms. The bedrooms both have airconditioners, which made my family and me rest comfortably since June is summertime in Italy. The kitchen is also equipped with all the basic appliances plus a dining table for 4.
Moreover, the apartment/flat is just a 4-minute walk to and from the Vatican, and just a short walking distance to and from the metro.
Alonso is such an amazing host. He has good local recommendations of the best Italian restaurants (like La Fiorentina, which offers delicious beef lasagna) that are just walking distance to and from the flat. Fastfoods like McDo and Burger King are just nearby. There are a lot of souvenir shops, good pizza and pasta restos including groceries where you can buy bottled water and other basic needs located near Alonso’s apartment.
We are truly thankful for having Alonso as our host in Rome. No regrets and the good reviews of his previous customers/occupants are all true.
