Elena (Cecilia) was a fantastic host; always on hand to answer any questions. Our flight arrived quite late, and she and her husband were kind enough to wait, and then give us a tour of the apartment, tips about the area, and local restaurant recommendations.

The apartment is bright and spacious, and has been newly - and very tastefully - refurbished to a high standard, with everything you would need for a short or a longer stay.

It's situated just off a small piazza with a few restaurants, trendy wine & book bars (which aren't too noisy in the evenings), and 5 minutes' walk from the Colosseum.

We also appreciated the bottle of wine and a watermelon (it was 35 degrees when we arrived) in the fridge! :)
We particularly loved the roof terrace, which we spent every morning and evening in. Would definitely recommend for a family (there's also a brand new sofa-bed) or a couple.

Now I just need to lose the weight I've gained from indulging in too much Italian cuisine...

Thanks for having us!
