Luca’s apartment is a great option for your stay in Rome. Luca, himself, was by far the most thorough host we’ve encountered so far through Airbnb (and we’ve stayed in many places). Luca greeted us himself, showed us around the apartment and provided us with a map of Rome. He sat with us talking and going through the map, highlighting areas of interest, as well as supplying a list of recommended restaurants. It being our first time in Rome, this was extremely helpful. Luca provided information not only about the tourist areas but also the lesser-known places favoured by locals. We appreciated the time he spent with us helping us find our bearings!
The apartment itself is very spacious and is situated within a pretty Italian courtyard just outside of the Vatican. It was ideally located to everywhere we wanted to visit, and we usually favoured walking along the wide, beautiful Roman streets as opposed to taking the metro. Having said that, the closest metro station is only 7 mins walk, which was extremely useful for getting to and from the airport.
The apartment is very close to a Carrefore supermarket and a gorgeous sandwich shop called Fa-bio, which does the most amazing smoothies and juices. We found the apartment comfortable and we slept very well in the cosy bed. During our stay, we cooked breakfasts and a couple of evening meals in the kitchen, and it is well equipped.
Luca’s apartment was ideal for our trip to Rome and we really enjoyed our stay! Thanks so much Luca!
