Julian met us at the apartment and allowed us to drop our luggage offa couple hours before check in so we could maximize our first day in Rome. He showed us around the apartment and gave us recommendations on where to eat. Try the Tavernella (5-7 minute walk) for true local authentic Roman Italian food. We ran into a little problem with my son s lost backpack and Julian went out of his way to help us communicate with the Italians as we do not speak the language. We also utilized Julian’s transport service to the airport. I highly recommend staying here as it is literally steps from the Colosseo and other sights, very clean and comfortable. The shower felt so good to have hot water and great water pressure as well.
