The stay at Rosario's place was wonderful. He communicated quickly prior to our stay and answered all questions. Rosario was away for a holiday so his nephew Andrea met us at the apartment. He spoke excellent English (much better than our Italian) and was helpful. Rosario left us a small gift because he could not be there to meet us which was unexpected and made us feel welcome in Rome. As you can see from the pictures, the apartment is tastefully decorated with many of Rosario's photographs. It was very clean, and spacious for our family of six. The linens and towels were of high quality. The neighborhood is quiet and conveniently located near the major sites of Ancient Rome. It is also convenient walking to the shops at restaurants of Monti. I highly recommend staying in Rosario's place. There's a reason it's booked all the time!
