Our stay at Andrea’s place was pleasant, the place looks exactly as it does in pictures and it is immaculately clean. Our trip of 4 turned into a trip of 2 and the apartment would have been the perfect size for either. Andrea’s father and a translator met us upon our arrival and gave us a tour, keys and a map of the city, the translator was as helpful as he could be and advised us that the trains were not running due to a strike. Be advised that there is a €3,50 per person per day state tax fee that is NOT included in the Airbnb price, this information is on the Airbnb page however is not readily available as it is highlighted in a drop down menu. It was our first time to Rome and commutation with Andrea was few and far between while we were on our trip. As English speakers that only knew a few Italian phrases it was very hard for us to find our way to the apartment form the airport it took us 3 hours to get through customs, take a little money out and find the bus that goes to the apartments neighborhood. This was definitely very frustrating as I did ask Andrea prior to arrival what was the best and least expensive way to get to the apartment and the response was very vague with bus, train or taxi. If this is your first time to Rome you will have to figure may things out on your own without much help from Andrea. In the end we learned the bus route which was very helpful because the transportation was free, however allot time in your schedule because it is at least a 30 bus ride to the center or Rome where most of the sights are. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Rome and this apartment is a good stay given the price but is a little ways from the city center!
