Ricardo has been a warm and very hospitable host. From the moment we booked our stay to the time we checked out he has been always available and approachable. His apartment is very clean and conveniently located to the A and B metro line as well as bus stops. There are plenty of dining options in the neighborhood. It is less than a 10 min walk to the Colosseum. There are a few mini marts(grocery stores) right down the lane as well as a 24 hrs Carrefour for your grocery needs about 5 mins from the building. Ricardo is very thoughtful and keeps his apartment very well equipped paying attention to the smallest details.
He greeted us at the entrance of the building when we arrived, equipped the fridge and apartment with little treats to get us settled, gave a detailed explanation of the map and helped us with ideas and directions to go about the city. Thanks to Ricardo's suggestions we got to stray a bit from our itinerary and explore the "Jewish Ghetto" the experience was incredible!! He helped book our taxis to the station and back to the airport for our departure. We would very highly recommend Ricardo, having him felt like having family in Rome.
