Gabriele is a great host - communication has been brilliant right from the start. On arrival, Gabriele greeted us personally and gave us a lot of useful information, especially about nearby restaurants.
The apartment itself is phenomenally located - all the attractions of central Rome are within walking distance and the wonderful Trastevere is about 15 mins walk. Lots of restaurants, bars, cafes and shops nearby. The apartment is well equipped and in great condition. It is decorated in a modern and tasteful manner - it is very pleasant to spend time in it. It is large and spacious. The only negative aspects are the fact that the apartment is dark - although on the other hand it gives relief on hot days. There is also no balcony where you can spend time outside. Sometimes there were also temporary problems with hot water.
Overall, I highly recommend Gabriele as the host and his apartment.
