Fantastic apartment, one of the best we've rented! 5 of us (2 couples and 1 teenager) had plenty of space & having 2 bathrooms was a huge bonus. Everything was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The apartment is tastefully decorated & furnished, with comfortable beds & good bedlinens. Great to have a washing machine also. The rooms have high ceilings, lovely original features & lots of light. The location is good, with great public transport options nearby (Manzoni metro, or buses, trams & taxis at Porta Maggiore). We actually liked being away from the city centre, as the area felt more like a real neighbourhood, yet within 20 minutes we could be at most of the main city sights. The Colosseum/Forum are easily reached on foot. We bought fresh fruit for breakfast every morning from the market round the corner, plus pastries from the bakery just beyond the Conad Supermarket. We ate well at a couple of nearby restaurants (Osteria La Sol Fa and Trattoria Fusco) & loved the gelato at Fassi.

Francesco was a wonderful host! He was very concerned that we were happy with everything, and was on hand to answer questions by text & email. He also left us some breakfast supplies & drinks, which was very thoughtful. He clearly cares that his guests have a good experience in his apartment and in Rome. We would recommend the apartment (and Francesco!) unreservedly and would stay here again without hesitation!
