The Roman Empire is exactly as it is described and just how the photos appear. This was a great home base for my parents and I during our 4 days in Rome. This apartment is in an exceptional location, not only being able to look out at the Colosseum and Ludus Magnus from our window but also being surrounded by many restaurants, a couple of convenience stores and only a couple of minutes walk from the subway station! It was also really easy to navigate our way home after a long day touring - how can you get lost when you're staying next to the Colosseum! The apartment itself was beautiful, with an appreciation for the retro tiling in the bathroom. This wasn't just an empty unit, it really felt like home with the décor, artwork and books. It was more than enough room for 3 adults. The sofa bed was a lot larger than I expected and very firm, which was great for my sore back after walking all day. Another bonus was the little elevator inside the building, this was appreciated after coming from Paris and having to walk several flights of stairs up to my apartment there. The neighbourhood itself felt very safe, I had no qualms about going out for a late night snack.

Andrea was very helpful from the time I enquired about booking his apartment until the day I left. He provided great instructions on how to get to the apartment and even booked a limo service to collect us from the airport. Collection of the keys was very easy, Andrea wasn't available at the time I arrived and I was able to collect the keys from Mr Stefano at the restaurant across the road. He even had a bottle of champagne on the table awaiting our arrival.

I cannot rave about this apartment more. It really felt like home for my short stay in Rome. I highly recommend this apartment to anyone wanting a comfortable and private stay in Rome.
