Perfect AirBnB for Rome!

Lorenzo's brother, Leonardo, was hosting this time. Very friendly and helpful. The flat/apartment:

- Nice size.
- Great A/C.
- Spacious.
- Good lighting.
- Nice bathroom with stand alone shower, toilet, bidet, sink.
- Kitchen is nice and even has a new washer - no dryer as is often the case in Europe, but things dry fast in the A/C.
- A lift/elevator is there if needed - otherwise just up a couple flights of stairs.
- Area is good: secure, safe, decent neighborhood, some decent markets and shops on the street.
- Location: GREAT. A couple blocks from Roma Termini with access to both metro lines, non-stop to FCO (€14), buses, taxi's (cheap here!), and trains. Plus, not that long of a walk to Colosseo and historic Rome. Metro from Termini takes you directly to Vatican. Even a big cathedral right up the street when you walk out the door. Almost couldn't get much better.

Overall, a perfect location if you are visiting Rome for a few days to a week or more. Way better than any hotel I've seen in Rome anywhere near this price range: hotels here are old, small, and musty. Lorenzo's place is a perfect base that's new inside, clean, option to cook (please don't, you're in Italy!), space to spread out, peaceful, and secure.

At any apartment I've stayed in the middle of these old European cities, I always say bring earplugs, just in case. I only heard neighbors once, and it was a washer cycle, so noise not a problem at Lorenzos.

Lorenzo and Leonardo are also really responsive and helpful and give the personalized local perspective. They arranged my ride from FCO and Leonardo had maps waiting when I arrived. All in all, another example of why AirBnB is the best thing ever for travelers!

PS. Check out the food scene in Trastevere - less than 2 miles away.
