I stayed at Monti Secret Garden for four weeks across the summer and it was the perfect place for an extended stay in Rome! At all times Lele and his colleague Leonardo were attentive and responsive to questions and responses. There was a small problem with the toilet on arrival which was resolved in less than 24 hours - fantastic considering it was fixed on a Sunday! What attracted me to this apartment originally was the location and outdoor spaces - neither disappointed! In the neighborhood (Monti) you are surrounded by many great bars, restaurants and shops and have easy transport links via the Cavour Metro stop. Main sites like the Colosseum and Roman Forums are within 5 minutes walking distance - you could even get to the Vatican within 30 minutes on foot! The outside courtyard and terrace were a must have in a busy period - providing some shelter from the heat and the crowds. I can't recommend this apartment and Lele and Leonardo as hosts enough!
