We had an amazing time in Rome whilst staying at Antonella and Marco's apartment. I've tried to best describe our fantastic time below;

Antonella has been helpful throughout, from booking through to departure. Before we left, Antonella helped us to organise our trips to the Vatican, as well as guiding us on what attractions to visit and opening times (much needed advice for Rome novices).

Our flight was late upon arrival and the traffic dreadful into Rome, but Marco (Antonella's partner) was ready and waiting outside the apartment. He was friendly and welcoming and gave us information detailing everything from local restaurants to local walks around the apartment around the apartment, which was invaluable. The area is a friendly neighbourhood with great local restaurants close by and the colosseum could be seen from the apartment at the end of the road.

The flat was exactly as described. We had all the basics (milk, coffee, pasta, fruit, tomato sauce etc) all there when we arrived, which all helped make us feel at home.

Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Antonellas flat, and we cannot recommend it enough. We were extremely sad to leave!
