I stayed at Elena’s apartment for 3 months! The apartment is spacious and clean. Elena personally met me for check-in and acquainted me with her home and the neighborhood area and even provided some local tips! She was always sweet, helpful and quick to respond to any of my questions. Elena and Paolo made me feel very welcome and comfortable and always offered very thoughtful touches. The apartment is in a central and safe location in the Esquilino/Monti area of Rome and it’s easy to walk or use the metro/bus to reach many sights. You can reach the Colosseum in 15 minutes by walking and Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, Campo dei Fiori, the Borghese Gardens, Vatican City, and Trastevere and the Tiber River in 20-30 minutes by walking / public transportation. Roma Termini train station is just a 10-15 minute walk. There are also many convenience stores plus plenty of restaurants, wine bars, cafes, and shops on the street. There is an elevator to reach the apartment. There is a washer and dryer. I highly recommend Elena’s place!! It truly felt like home away from home and I can’t wait to stay again :)
