The location of Alessandro’s place is really great, it’s just a short walk to the Coliseum and many other Roman attractions. The Monti neighborhood where the apartment is located is a good spot for restaurants, bars, and shops as well.
During our stay, however, we had all of our Euros stolen from our bags while we were out one day. We don’t know how the burglary and break-in happened, and nothing else was taken except the Euros. The fact that there was a burglary was very alarming, this has never happened to me before at an Airbnb and the burglary disrupted and marred the remainder of our time in Rome. Alessandro responded to our messages once we had discovered the money was missing, but he did not know how it could have happened either, and then he didn’t attempt anything further to find out how it could have happened or help in any way.
We also could not use the terrace during our visit because there were too many mosquitos - we know there was nothing Alessandro could do about this, but it was disappointing to not be able to enjoy the garden terrace space without being bitten. There were also quite a few mosquitos in the apartment itself, most likely from the terrace, so we had to buy but spray to help prevent bites.
Again, great location, but had a few drawbacks, and the burglary that obviously impacted our visit.
