This was a great Airbnb in Rome! Exactly what we were looking for. We had very long, arduous trip from Chicago due to a canceled flight and several customer service mishaps in rebooking it (Thanks United!) so we REALLY appreciated Federica’s husband Manuel picking us up at the Termini. He was very nice and gave us tips and recommendations along the way (we went to the restaurant he recommended down the road, it had awesome pizza!) then he showed us around the Airbnb and explained everything we would need to know and gave us a map with the main tourist sites.
We had one full day to explore, and originally was planning on staying closer to the Pantheon and didn’t know if I would regret being a bit southeast of the coliseum, but the location was perfect. We took the Metra (a stop is a short walk away) to the Spagna stop, walked from the Spanish Steps to Borghese Park/gallery, then walked to Trevi and along the Steve Ricks “heart of Rome” walk to Piazza Navona, then we walked to the Coliseum and then back to the apartment which is a short walk at that point. We saw just about all of the big must-see sites (sans Vatican) and made it back to the apartment by dinner time.
The apartment was basic. Small, but clean and it had everything we needed. Closing the shudders (Manuel explained how) made the room quite dark for us late sleepers and the espresso machine, snacks and juice were great touches. The shower worked great and everything was very clean. The one tip I would have is depending on the other guests staying in the building, you may want to get to the coffee first thing when you wake up. But if it is gone, the espresso machine worked great. The cake for breakfast was quite tasty.
Overall, i would definitely recommend this Airbnb.
