Elena's contact up to our arrival was fantastic. She was not there to check us in, I believe it was her father. He was a very nice man, gave us lots of tips about Rome and showed us about the apartment. The apartment itself is in a fantastic location! Close to a train station that goes to/from the airport easily. Also a bus comes even closer to/from Termini station. If you are energetic and like to walk the Colosseum and Forum are within walking distance about 25-30 minutes depending on your speed! If not, there are 2 busses that get you close to all the good stuff Rome has to offer. Also grocery is close. The apartment itself is beautiful. Has everything you need! I enjoyed the nice big bath tub and fast wifi. Small kitchen though with limited counter space which can be annoying if you like to cook! I would highly recommend this airbnb!
