Marco's apartment was about 10 minutes' (with children and bags!) walk from Termini station. Marco provided clear instructions for check-in, and buzzed us in on arrival at about 9pm. The room was spacious and tidy, with very comfortable beds. The bathroom is a little on the small side so perhaps less easy to use with younger children but ours (6 and 9) were fine. (*My husband just said that he disagrees and he couldn't fault it, so this is just my view!!). Our rooms were tidied each day after we had left the building so it was nice to return to made beds.
We especially wanted to stay somewhere offering a good breakfast, to set us up for a day's exploring and Marco didn't disappoint. He and Nicoletta were friendly, helpful and very attentive, providing plenty of hot drinks and toast. We could choose our breakfast time within a given window and it was nice to overlap some breakfast time with other guests and attempt to chat in very poor Italian with a lot of help from google translate! There was plenty on offer (fruit, juices, cheese, meat, croissants, cereal etc) and Marco was happy to provide the soya milk I had emailed and requested beforehand. Our daughter loved her morning hot chocolates and we also used the kitchen to make cups of tea later in the day.
The apartment is in a great location - only 5 or so minutes walk from the Colosseum and we walked everywhere during our stay taking in the main sights. We were able to store our bags throughout our last day as our flight didn't leave until the evening, with Marco providing us an extra set of keys just for the building. We allowed plenty of time to get back to the airport, and avoided the forecasted rain by returning to the station and spending nearly two hours at the trendy Mercato Centrale sampling lots of yummy food.
A brilliant holiday for all of us, thank you so much Marco and Nicoletta for your hospitality.
