Staying at Damiano's has been for me the epitome of the Airbnb experience. It's all what Airbnb is about! Since day 1 I felt like I was living by a close friend, a person who is ready to make the stay not only comfortable, but a true unforgettable experience.

The apartment was clean, quiet, and very well featured. Damiano has provided a nice breakfast and fresh fruits for all the days I was in. We even had dinner together, eating pasta by a real Italian is an experience you should not pass. The house is in a very strategic place as it is close to grocery stores, a metro station, and night buses. Garbatella is one of the most amazing neighborhoods to feel the Roman vibe. Damiano offered to show me around Rome on his scooter, which was THE adventure as you can only really appreciate the city with a local. And he can reveal all the secrets of the eternal city.

Damiano and I took part in one Airbnb-arranged event of "treasure hunt" in the historical center of the city. It was an amazing opportunity for host and visitor to come together and enjoy a nice evening, getting to know each other while meeting new interesting people.

All in all, I feel I gained a friend, more than a place to stay. Damiano and his apartment are the reasons I have faith that Airbnb is the future of visiting!
