Our stay at Valerio's place was nothing short of perfect. We had a party of 8 people, 5 adults and 3 children ages 7, 10, and 13. We rented both sides of the property and there was plenty of room and comfortable sleeping after our long days exploring Rome. The location is perfect, I have bad knees and was able to walk to the Pantheon (very close), Campo dei Fiori (~10 min), Piazza Navona (~10 min), Trevi Fountain (~15 min), and the Colosseum/Forum (~15 min, but longer because you see so much on the way there that you'll want to stop for photos). We chose to take a taxi to the Vatican, because we had an early tour and wanted to enjoy breakfast without rushing, but that walk is probably 20-25 min and includes a nice walk over the bridge to Vatican City. So location was a huge highlight, and there were plenty of restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, and ruins in the square right next to the property. Valerio's hospitality was genuine and made the experience memorable. He provided a history of his home, which was cool, and the cupboards were stocked with snacks/drinks that lasted for our two nights there (and a bottle of wine!). Two bathrooms, three queen-sized beds (one is a pull-out couch), and two single beds were perfect for us, and the sitting room was a great common area to relax. The optional taxi service from the airport is great, it was 50 euro for our incoming group of 4 (the other 4 came from Milano). If you want to explore Rome, this is the place!!
