I got several descriptive emails from Cristina explaining all about the city including places to visit, transportation, places to eat, shops, etc. She even explained information on how to get to the nearest pharmacy after hours which was much needed for us. When we arrived late past 10:00 pm, Paolo was waiting for us. He was extremely friendly as he helped us with our luggage and explained all the details about the apartment. To welcome us to Rome, Paolo surprised us with a bottle of wine and a box of chocolates.
The apartment had everything we needed making us feel welcome and at home including several sets of bathroom towels, beach towels, and extra sheets. For the next morning, the apartment had an espresso machine ready to brew four cups of coffee. The terrace, just as the picture shows, has a beautiful view and it was nice to relax on to unwind the day. The neighborhood was very safe and friendly. As we arrived very tired, we were lucky to find the place next door opened late that is owned by a nice family and has amazing food. Cristina and Paolo's apartment was great for our staying in Rome and it is much recommended.
