From start to finish, we had a great time at Andrea's place. He helped in updating the booking when the airline moved our flight, booked us taxis from and to the airport and volunteered to let us check in early when he saw the time of our arrival. He was also on hand to assist when the taxi driver didn't materialize on time.
The apartment itself was quiet, spacious and comfortable, and warm! The weather itself was freezing so it was very important. The location really is 3 minutes from the Colosseum and we explored the area and enjoyed it.
I plan on coming back...
