My friend and I had a fantastic first experience with Air BnB in Rome. GianCarlo was more than welcoming - he even waited up for us as our flight didn't get into Rome until the evening. He welcomed us at the flat with fresh fruit and biscuits and explained how to use the mobile WiFi. He also provided us with a list of recommended restaurants and offered to book tables for us as we don't speak Italian. The apartment was gorgeous and clean and the location was great - you could see the Vatican City at the end of the road! Overall a great experience - we would definitely return! :)
