After agreeing to an early check-in Paolo was waiting for us at the door ready to greet us. Not only that. The cab driver didn’t have change for the EUR 100 bill I used to pay the EUR 12 fare from Roma Termini to the house. But that was not a problem. Before I knew Paolo was paying the cab (I reimbursed him later of course). The apartment couldn’t be located at a better place and although it is small according to modern standards, it is perfectly adequate for 3 or 4 people staying for a week or so in Rome. We had a wonderful time, my wife, my younger son (9 years old) and myself. This apartment and Paolo’s great attitude were important ingredients contributing to our happiness in the Eternal City.
