Stop your search-you've found the BEST place in Rome! Whether it's a romantic getaway for 2 or the whole family relaxing in this spacious apartment, you will love L'Aurora al Colosseo! Let's face it, traveling can be stressful, and Italy is not exactly the easiest place to figure out-which makes its treasures even more exciting when you discover them. You've just spent hard-earned time and resources to get away on a new adventure. You and your travel partners DON'T need the extra stress of broken air conditioning, internet that could be beaten by smoke signals or hosts without full knowledge of travelers' needs. Take it from my husband and me. After several trips to Europe with airbnb, we've had it all, and now we're spoiled. L'Aurora al Colosseo is a treasure situated at the foot of the Colosseo. My husband and I marveled at the view each time we stepped outside our door. However, the historic landmarks are not what makes a perfect vacation home for us. We value the close proximity to all the transportation options so we can easily enjoy all the sights of Rome. Here, you're steps from the metro. A cab station is right around the corner, less than a block, making airport pick up and drop off a breeze. Best of all, there's a bicycle and scooter rental agency right next door (riding experience required, and you will adore the manager Adolfo, a true Roman!). After your luxury accommodation and convenient transportation, you need food. Of course every restaurant in Rome will serve you amazing meals, and there are too many to choose from right outside your door here in the heart of the city. But there's nothing like the convenience of a grocery store within walking distance-well this one is directly across the street! My husband and I enjoyed several evenings at home in L'Aurora with local food from the market, relaxing after a long day of exploring. I could have moved in for good when I saw the kitchen in this place-dishwasher, a first for me on euro-vaca! There's nothing like having the midnight snack, morning cereal or plenty of drinks on hand in the apartment to help you feel right at home. And, ahh, the convenience of laundry in your apartment here. I washed clothes almost every day just because I could :). To further highlight the specific features that every american looks for in her home, both showers in this apartment are pure luxury- and that's saying something! When you are ready to get up for your morning coffee, brunch, or refreshment after sightseeing, I recommend the cafe right downstairs! After two weeks, it felt like our local coffee shop, and the employees were happy to see us arrive each day like clockwork. Last but certainly not least, this experience wouldn't be possible without the hospitality and commitment to excellence from your hostess, Roberta. My husband and I couldn't thank her enough for her attention to every detail in this luxury...
