I and my family (husband and two kids) enjoyed a lot living in Massimo's apartment. Absolutely everything was good and convenient.
The last check-in time was 10:00 PM but we were a half hour late. Massimo and his son were so pleasant to wait for us. They showed us the apartment and its facilities in details as well as gave the map with main points of the district which might be helpful for us (metro, walking zones, shops, bars and etc). The apartment is sunny, spacious and clean. All the facilities for comfortable life are presented. There is a huge number of kitchenware, washer and dishwasher - both with powder available, coffee maker with coffee, olive oil for cooking, a large table in the living room (we had an awesome Christmas dinner with our relatives), soap, shampoo, lots of towels and bedclothes, and etc etc etc. In a word, it looks like Massimo took care of any things we could need for comfortable life.
Not only I became a fan of Rome and its winter weather (that's for sure) but also fell in love with the local area where the apartment is located: 3-5 min to Subaugusta station (metro line A - the main), 5-7 min. to Giulio Agricola station (also line A), 10-15 min walking to huge Aqueduct Park where you could spend a whole day just walking and/or training (it has a playground at the very beginning), supermarkets (Conad and etc.), a number of bars, cafes (gelateria, pizzeria and so on) - all are withing walking distance (5-10 min). On the one hand It's easy to reach the historical center (20-30 min with metro) and from the other there's no so many people as in the city center which makes the district cozy and comfortable for the daily life.
Thanks, Massimo, I really appreciate the care you have taken and believe you are on the way of becoming a super host! I definitely advise this host and apartment for renting, and fantastic Rome for visiting! :-)
