My girlfriend and I stayed in Luca's flat from June 30-July 2. Overall, the experience was great. The apartment itself is on the ground floor, so there was no carrying heavy suitcases up stairs. The air conditioning was icy cold, we had access to all cooking essentials (even a Moka pot with ground coffee for your morning espresso), the place was clean and comfortable, and the building is literally around the corner (1 minute walking) from the perimeter gates of the Roman Forum; if you're a history buff, you'll love this place as the flat has an awesome view of the Palatine Hill. We used the flat as a home base, and we were able to walk anywhere imaginable during our stay; we even walked to the Vatican, Piazza di Popolo, and the Spanish steps in Piazza di Spagna. Basically, there is nothing bad about this place what so ever. Luca even provided a map of the city. The only thing that I could complain about would be the lack of detail in directions provided by Luca in regard to how to get from the bus stop to the house..."It's just 5 minutes walking from the stop." True, it's 5 minutes, but as we were lugging around heavy luggage with no cell phone service, it took us 20 minutes with a paper map and a lot of sweat to eventually find the place. Nonetheless, that was the only problem we encountered, and I would highly recommend Luca's flat for your vacation in Rome.
