This holiday is our first trip not only to Rome but to Italy and we were hoping our choice in an Airbnb apartment would provide a rich immersion in Italian culture. Our expectations were exceeded. This apartment is beautifully located in a lively market square by day, surrounded by restaurants and bars , and has a vibrant night atmosphere where families come to eat and be entertained. Notwithstanding this, when the double-glazed windows are shut the apartment is very quiet. We really appreciated the hospitality of our host, Bettina, who organised a driver to meet us at the airport. Bettina then met us in the piazza and took us to the apartment to orient and welcome us.
The proximity to all attractions across the city was great. We love walking and we were able to walk to everywhere throughout the city with this apartment as our base [and respite when we needed a rest!]. The air conditioner was also a welcome relief from Rome's summer heat and humidity. Being so centrally located we felt like locals within a couple of days.
