Desiree and her friend Simone provided our family of 4 with a superb vacation experience in Rome! We were greeted upon our arrival by Simone, who took the time to walk us through the apartment and point out all its generous amenities; he also gave us a helpful overview of the various transportation lines (metro, bus) and restaurants in the area. The apartment was just as described - it is a large 2-bedroom with an ample kitchen and gorgeous sunny terrace! Desiree mentioned that she likes to provide her guests with a feeling like they are at home, she certainly succeeded in our case. Our two young boys (6 and 8), as well as my wife and I felt completely at home, and very much regretted having to leave! What impressed me most of all was how kind and helpful Simone was. We encountered a last-minute change in our flight which meant we needed to fly out of a different airport. Simone promptly helped us print new boarding passes, secure a taxi and assist with ensuring that we received a fair rate to Ciampino. Grazie Desiree e Simone. E' stato un vero piacere e spero di revedervi l'anno prossimo!
