Julian and Lorella were excellent hosts. Our flight was delayed and they were flexible in making arrangements for us to access the apartment when we arrived late. They also allowed us to leave our luggage at the apartment after the normal checkout time, until our afternoon train left for Salerno. This allowed us to enjoy our last morning in Rome touring the Vatican, without worrying about what to do with our bags. The apartment had plenty of room for our two families of four. It is very convenient to Termini Station and we were happy to find that getting cabs to and from the apartment to main attractions was also more reasonable than expected (Colosseum area cost about 7-8 Euros for 4 people and Vatican area 10- 13 Euros depending on traffic)- well worth it given how hot Rome was during our visit. The Metro is very convenient and walking to the sites also doable, but being as Rome had it's hottest days of the summer during our trip, it was nice to sometimes just grab a cab instead. Don't let the location near the main train station deter you. We found the area to be very safe. The apartment is on an upper floor and also has gated security doors on the main building entry which you can only access with your apartment keys. This made us feel very secure, allowing our teenage kids to stay alone at the apartment for a few hours if they needed a break from the heat. There was also a good supermarket and pharmacy very close by. When we left, our daughter forgot a very expensive dental appliance at the apartment. Our hosts had already contacted us by e-mail by the time we arrived at the coast for the rest of our holiday, and offered to meet us to return it, when we returned back to the airport in Rome at the end of our trip. This was above and beyond what we expected. They really went out of their way to help us out and it was so appreciated!
