Paola was there to greet us as we emerged from our taxi. The apartment was just perfect. The location was ideal, the wifi strong, the AC cool and the water hot! But, the person who literally saved our trip was Paola. I contacted Paola from the airport that I would like her help locating a dentist as soon as possible. When we arrived, Paola had made an appointment with a dentist that afternoon and had called a taxi for us. I required an emergency root canal! The dentist was an Italian who had trained in the United States and spoke English. Paola also arranged an additional visit a few days later. I cannot stress how grateful we are to Paola. This was our first experience with AirBnB . The apartment itself was spacious. I am not for sure I can stay in a hotel ever again! The apartment is located on the banks of the Tiber river and was situated right next to a bus stop. Two wonderful restaurants were literally a couple of doors down either way. There was a small grocer a few doors down. He had great fresh fruit. The Vatican is very close and the walk to the Colosseum was 30-40 minutes and we are definately not speed walkers! If we ever return to Rome, Rovere Blu is where we will stay.
