This apartment is an absolute gem and I would highly recommend it.
Apartment - Firstly, the location is fantastic - minutes from the Spanish Steps, very close to excellent restaurants and the Borghese Gardens and every type of shop imaginable. In fact, we walked to all the tourist attractions from the apartment. Via Margutta is a quiet road but is packed full of stylish shops selling clothes, art, furniture, lighting and also restaurants. Secondly, the apartment is steeped in history and has a classic style and elegance. It manages to stay cool inside even on very hot days but there is air conditioning if you need an extra boost. The terrace is lovely and was nice to sit out with a drink and a book. Towels are provided and the host kindly offered to top up towels mid-week if needed. The apartment was spotless and there was always plenty of hot water. It really is a beautiful place.
The Host - Maria Teresa is a very special host and utterly charming. Even before we arrived she was in communication with me asking if she could assist with our arrival. Then when we arrived, she was super helpful and gave excellent recommendations for restaurants, gelateria, best places for shopping and kept in touch throughout our stay to check whether we needed anything. Also, her restaurant recommendations were excellent and were places that the locals frequented. She could not have been more helpful. She clearly takes great pride in her beautiful city and wants to share all that it has to offer with her guests. She made our holiday experience truly exceptional. She is definitely a 5 star super host *****!
