Michele's place was in an unbelievable location. Cute little street with cafes and bars... and only a few minutes walk to the colusseum! Pretty surreal. The terrace was incredible... really made you feel like you were having an authentic, un-touristy Rome experience while you drink wine and listen to the street life below. Wonderful.

The apartment itself was a bit more sparse and bare-bones than we expected. Some of the dishes were dirty in the cupboard and the bed wasn't great. We had to buy our own toilet paper and soap to wash our hands. And the TV was very old... not that you'd spend your visit in Rome watching TV, but worth noting for those interested.

However for us, those things are tiny issues when you have a location and terrace like this! In addition, Michele was incredibly communicative and helpful with everything we asked.
