I cannot say enough good things about Willy’s place. His communication was wonderful and he was patient with how long it took me to drag my luggage from across town to his apartment (this was our second Airbnb in Rome during our stay) and my definitely my favorite. The location is fantastic. I originally stayed right in the center of the historic district, but enjoyed Willy’s location (still very center and up the street from the Colosseum) much better! Willy provided local suggestions for food, unfortunately we did not have the opportunity to eat at the restaurant he suggested, but hope to on a return trip and I am certain from all our contact that it would have been wonderful.
As for the apartment, we enjoyed our stay very much! We appreciated all the extra touches, and the warm homey feeling of the space made us immediately comfortable. I can’t say that for some other spaces. Croissants, coffee, and sugar were waiting in the kitchen and was so nice! Additionally, the washer was a lifesaver as we were in need of laundering after being in Europe for a week previous to this stay. The washer was simple to use, and Willy even had laundry detergent in the apartment—what a joy! We were able to wash and hang our clothing. Very nice. And speaking of hanging clothing outside, the patio space is wonderful! Loved every minute of our stay.
The only “con” which isn’t really even a con, but my failure to accurate read the listing (not at all Willy’s fault) was that I was a tad surprised by the cleaning fee when we arrived. But as Willy, very professionally and politely pointed out, it was indeed in the listing and I being new to Airbnb failed to read that part. Completely my fault, but just to be aware. And with that said, I would stay here in again in a heart beat! Thank you so much Willy for a wonderful (and redeeming for us) stay in Rome!
