We had an amazing time in Rome, made all the better by having our own apartment to retreat to after busy days. Great communication with the host leading up to the visit and upon arrival. He made sure we had everything we needed, knew where to buy food etc. & gave transport advice. The apartment was very clean, tidy and comfortable. Tea and towels included :-) The only slight negative about the place was a smell from the drains in the bathroom, but with the door closed and extractor fan on it wasn't a big problem. Also the building has no lift and the stairs are quite narrow and steep, so consider this when choosing your luggage :-) The neighbourhood had everything we needed and some hidden gems like a cafe selling amazing takeaway arancini. It is not in a 'touristy' area, but we liked that - a short walk led us to the most amazing authentic Trattoria, and the place was still just 20 minutes walk to the Colosseum. There are lots of homeless people around Termini train station, which was a little unnerving at night, but apart from that we loved the location. Thank you so much for a great stay!
