My wife and I stayed in Michele’s flat, and it was our home base while we explored Rome. As advertised, the apartment was small but well-appointed: fridge, kitchen space, effective air conditioning, even a washing machine. Staying for just three nights at the beginning of a two-week tour of Italy, we didn’t plan on availing ourselves of the washing machine’s services—until we proceeded to sweat through all our clothes walking the city in peak August heat. While we didn’t utilize the private rooftop patio as much as we thought we would, it was an ideal setting for DIY aperitivo before going out for dinner. The location is hard to beat. A few minutes’ walk from the Colosseum and the Forum, the flat is also very close to a subway station for accessing the rest of the city. Michele was an excellent host; he met us promptly upon our arrival and was very accessible via private message/WhatsApp throughout our stay. Highly recommended.
