First, the place: it’s hard to imagine a better set up. The sunroom/terrace on the roof offers spectacular views of historic Rome, equally enjoyable in the morning and evening. The apartment is much more spacious than it appears in photos, was meticulously clean, tastefully decorated, well stocked and organized.
Then, Michael: a consummate host! When he greeted us and ran through the apartment details, it felt like he genuinely wanted us to feel at home and enjoy our stay in Rome. On an interesting personal note, though he’s a native Roman, he speaks flawless English with an American accent.
Finally, while we did a fair amount of exploring restaurants and wine bars via research and spur of the moment finds, we found that the places we visited at Michael’s recommendation were always fantastic!
