This was an absolutely perfect first airbnb experience. The apartment is in a great location, easy walk from Termini, right by the Metro, close to the Colosseum and extremely safe. My sister and I stayed there and never once felt unsafe coming home- and the building itself is extremely secure. The loft apartment is perfect- extremely clean and looks just like the pictures. Just enough space for 2, and we thought the bed was comfortable. Is the shower situation a little strange? Yes it is, (there is a shower head in the corner, and the entire bathroom basically is the shower stall so you shower next to the toilet) but it is clean and functions just fine so we got over it very quickly.

As you will read in other reviews, do NOT lose Frank's map!!!! It is invaluable and really helped us find everything we were looking for and much much more in Rome. Frank happily sat with us for at least 30 minutes upon arrival to review everything and point out great places to see, eat, and drink and how to beat lines at major attractions. Overall we cannot say enough great things about our stay here and we would not only stay here again but would highly recommend it to friends.
