Marcella was fantastic! She booked us a private driver who picked us up from the airport, and then she promptly met us at the place. She took time to answer questions that we had, and helped us get acquainted with the area. After we left for our next stop in Tuscany, she went the extra mile and passed along some suggestions of places to visit there.

The apartment is a spacious 1 bedroom in an old building (I think she said 1600's?) with skeleton key doors. It's carefully, and tastefully decorated, and I'm a huge fan of the exposed wood beam ceiling :). It has all of the basic items that you'd need like towels, kitchen supplies, toilet paper, etc. One thing to be aware of is that it's not in a quiet neighborhood at all. But, the solution for me was easy – I slept with the earplugs that I brought for the plane.

Although it was loud, the great part about it being a lively neighborhood is that it's in a lively neighborhood! Taking in the Roman nightlife is as easy as stepping out the front door. With an over abundance of dining options it can be easy to make a bad choice. But, just to the right of exiting the front door is a great choice – Da Francesco. Eat there. The apartment is also centrally located to many of Rome's historic sites. We easily made our rounds to the sites of ancient Rome, the Vatican, Borghese, the Pantheon, and the list literally goes on. Stay here, and you'll be at the center of the action.
