Absolutely Fantastic! We had a brilliant trip to Rome, which was made even better by Fabrizio's apartment and hospitality. As I have never used Airbnb before I was very cautious. However, Fabrizio was on hand from the second I booked the apartment up until once I had left Rome checking everything was okay and running to plan. He had a welcome pack which ran you through all the logistics and made you feel very at ease.

In terms of the apartment, it's great! It looks exactly like the photos and is spotless. We arrived to homemade biscuits and coffee - which was very appreciated after our travels. There is a large bedroom with a double bed and ensuite, then a kids room and another bathroom (we had adults sleeping in the single bed and this wasn't a problem). The kitchen is fully equipped which meant when we were tiered out from a long day of site seeing we could stay in and cook dinner. The lounge is very comfy and has a pull out sofa bed. The balcony was also really handy for those sunny afternoons and a cold beer from the fridge (you are 1 min from a large supermarket).

The location was perfect for what we were after. You are miles from any tourists. It is on the outskirts of Rome but there's some local bars and restaurants. The apartment is a 10/15 min walk from a Metro station which goes into the centre of town. We got a Metro pass for the week which was around £25. The Metro goes pretty close to all the tourist hot spots which was handy. Although it does close at 9:30pm so you have to be willing to pay for taxis back, which were around £15 from the centre.

All in all it was a fantastic trip! We loved Rome. The apartment was brilliant and very good value for money. I would recommend it to anyone!
