Mad was very welcoming to us and was easy to get in touch with. She gave a very thorough and informative introduction to Rome and the neighbourhood. She was also very passionate and lively even though it was pretty late in the evening when we met.

The accommodation and area was as described. Very beautiful apartment with nice artistic modern interior.

WARNING: If leaving in the morning, unlock the front gate before leaving the key in the apartment. We had to leave early in the morning (5am) to catch our flight out of Rome but didn’t realise that the front gate is locked overnight and needs a key to get out which is in the apartment keys. We usually get up at 10am for breakfast and the gate is already unlocked so we assumed it was always open. There is no other way out of the building and there was no attendant around to let us out. Luckily, after 15mins of searching and panicking we found someone leaving for work that let us out.

The neighbourhood was very quite and private although very close to public transport and attractions. Everything is within walking distance and very easy to get around. Overall, we were extremely happy with our short stay in her apartment. Thanks again Mad.
