This was my first experience with airbnb therefore I was careful when deciding where to book. While corresponding with Pina she proved to be very attentive and made us feel like her listing was the right fit for us. Before we arrived in Rome, Pina and her son Marco made attempts to purchase tickets to a football match that we were interested in attending and when they were unable to do so provided us with additional options in order to obtain the tickets. Upon arriving in Rome, Pina and her son Marco picked us up from the airport and were amazing enough to drive us around the neighborhood to show us where the local supermarket, banks and metro were located and how accessible it would be from the apartment. Once we arrived to the apartment Pina’s husband Leonardo was there to greet us and help us get adjusted. The apartment was exactly as described and smelled absolutely amazing!! Pina was gracious enough to stick around the apartment to help us map out all the attractions in Rome that we should visit while providing us with exact and accurate directions on how to get around. It was great to have had her provide us with a cell phone with everyones numbers already programmed in it! The neighborhood, although extremely quiet and at times almost deserted, provided us with the best local experience free of tourists. The local pizzeria Giardino Segredo, which was suggested by Pina, was full of locals that make you feel right at home and will mention Pina’s name once they realize you are tourists and obviously her guests! Marcos was great to drive us to the local shopping center to purchase the football tickets! I would highly recommend Pina and this listing as it proved to make our first trip to Rome an unforgettable one. It was difficult to leave Rome on our last day but even more difficult to leave Pina and her amazing family! We would definately book with Pina again as Rome has easily become our second home and Pina and her family our second family! :) Thank you for everything Pina!
