We were welcomed by Sandro's parents who were delightful. Sandro communicated regularly prior and during our stay. The apartment was spacious and comfortable and the apartment building stylish and secured. Coming from Sydney we don't have this style or age of building. The location was excellent next door to the Vatican and many other famous landmarks. We easily walked to the river and across the bridge to many other beautiful monuments even though the subway was close by. We also enjoyed having a taxi rank around the corner and was a favoured option as they were good value and being at the end of a 6 week trip we were taking a few short cuts. The Rendezvous Cafe excellent place to have a meal, coffee and excellent WIFI and good opening hours. We enjoyed Sandro's apartment and would recommend it to future visitors. The shower recess however is quite small and my husband had trouble fitting in and getting in and out of the bath a little tricky. Unfortunately the TV antenna was damaged in a storm and the dishwasher was out of action, which Sandro was not able to have fixed until after our stay. However, this did little to dent our enjoyable stay in Rome.
