Andrea and Christiana were wonderful hosts!
Andrea kept good communication before, during, and after our stay. The apartment was exactly as described and in the most perfect location for first time visitors to Rome.
Apartment had large map of Rome, contact numbers, and emergency numbers all listed for ease on wall by entrance door. Grocery, pharmacy, and tobacco stores all within one block. Metro station two blocks. (Very simple train routes to understand, I recommend using the Metro especially in the hot heat of summer.)
I also recommend visiting the 24 hour grocery around the block. Prices are much more reasonable for snacks, water, etc. than out on your adventures.
Be sure to visit restaurants off the beaten path! Trattorias just a block away from major attractions will provide a more authentic Italian experience. (And more reasonable in price.)
When we first arrived in Rome, we were a little nervous with the neighborhood, but, by the end of the trip, this is where we felt at home. Be aware of gypsies and pick pockets in many other areas. We felt safest in this neighborhood.
Five stars to Andrea and Christiana! I would most definitely book again and recommend to others! Absolutely wonderful!
