Our apartment in Rome was HOME away from home!

For starters: Cristiano kept in constant touch with us way before we even left the United States.

Upon our arrival: As our taxi pulled up by the apartment, we see a waving, smiling Cristiano welcoming us. He helped us with our luggage and showed us where everything was located. The apartment had everything we needed: several kinds of tea; 3 kinds of coffee; drinking water; juice; breakfast cookies; paper towel; several rolls of toilet paper; shampoo; very clean towels; hair dryer; and, other items which one takes for granted when one is home. AND, a bottle of Spumante to top off the welcome:)

On the desk were several business cards of restaurants located near the apartment; list of tours in Rome; maps (which Cristiano marked so that we can easily navigate the streets of Rome) AND, an adaptor for our phones and laptops! (we did not have to un-pack the adaptors we brought on this trip).

As for the apartment itself ….. it is CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN! The place was very well appointed.

LOCATION – perfect! There are restaurants within a 2-3 minute walk from the apartment and a convenience store on the same block. Iconic locations such as the Fountain of Trevi and The Spanish steps were a mere 10 minute walk. Everywhere we wanted to go was walking distance from the apartment. The apartment is also located in a very safe part of town. We could walk very late at night without any fears.

Our hosts: Anything we requested – we got. We texted with questions - we got a response right away! We needed a taxi at 6:30 am – we got it! A weighing scale – we got it!

Cristiano and Valero are the perfect hosts!

Whenever we are in need of lodging, we will rent any place Cristiano and Valero will have available - anytime, anywhere!
