In addition to the fact that the apartment is in a fantastic location, is very clean, well furnished, and quiet (as other reviewers have attested), Paolo also provided everything for a nice breakfast (bread, fruit, coffee, juice, etc.), in addition to a chilled bottle of wine waiting on the kitchen table. More importantly, he also provided a welcome smile, a pleasant personality, and a host of recommendations for good food, wine, and interesting sights. We tried out many of his dining recommendations and were extremely happy with each and every one. Even if the apartment were in a bad location and in poor shape I'd stay with Paolo just for the pleasure of meeting him again. I will definitely recommend Paolo's apartment to anyone I meet traveling to Rome.
