Wow. I'm not sure 500 words are enough to say how fantastic the apartment was. To begin with Elisabetta was very quick to respond in answering our questions. The apartment was just as described, super clean, well thought out, everything you could ever need. The rooms were very spacious, comfy beds, great quality bedding and beautiful on suite bathrooms. Everything felt very new and very well cared for. Also one thing that is worth mentioning that not all the airbnb apartments dealt with, was, the basic stuff was in the kitchen. Coffee, sugar salt and pepper, oil. Such a small thing but when you arrive at one of these apartments for a week, or a couple of days, it is really nice not to have to rush out and buy the basics.
The location in Monti was fabulous. I don't think they make a big enough deal of just how well positioned you are for Ancient Rome and the sights. Even more important was the neighborhood. You are 4 minutes walk from a lovely square and fountain, with bars and restaurants , a wonderful spot to sit on the steps, share a drink and watch the locals and the tourists stroll by. The surrounding streets have restaurants, gelateria, stores, coop and the subway stop of Cavour. We did explore most of the sites but really loved exploring all the neighborhoods, soaking up the sights, smells and local stuff. We have used Airbnb in Argentina, Germany, Spain, Mexico and Portugal, and yet again we had the most wonderful experience. Elizabetta, thank you so much for all your help in arranging this wonderful vacation in Rome.
