Ariele met my two friends and me to show us the way to the apartment and hand us the keys, also giving us a quick explanation of the apartment and interesting places around town. He was very kind and helpful the whole stay. We were always able to contact him and he replied within minutes.

The apartment itself was perfectly clean and very comfy. Everything was prepared for our stay. It is located in a quiet neighborhood and captures the lifestyle of Italy pretty good; better than any Hotel in my opinion. It had a high quality interior and provided all the necessary things that you need for a nice stay. It might end up a little bit more narrow than you would expect from the pictures, but that was no problem at all for us. The apartment is located at the top end of the "Rampa Brancaleone", and it is called rampa for a reason. It is quiet steep and you have to take a good amount of stairs to reach it. No problem for us students though.

The neighborhood provides a supermarket in close proximity and a variety of smaller bars, cafes and snack bars. A bus and train station is about 5-10 minutes away (St. Pietro Station). From there you have access to the whole city, starting with the bus line 64. Vatican city with the St. Peters basilica is just a short walk away. No need to use public transport to get there which allows you to easily visit this place at night (as well as the Castel Sant' Angelo) and just walk back to the apartment after you've taken in the beautiful views.

All in all, we had a great stay that was made possible by Ariele. After a long day of visiting the numerous sights around the city, we were always happy to return to this apartment and get some rest. We absolutely loved it.

Thank you Ariele!
