We found it was difficult to find the perfect place in Rome .... We really searched! Amazingly, we did find the PERFECT place. If you rent this apartment you will too! We loved the welcome basket. The hostess, Valentina could not be nicer or more helpful.
Valentina actually met us in the street as we were later than she expected. She was very caring and through about giving us directions about all of the house information. Plus, all of the information is written and easily referred to.
There are stacks of Roma books, maps and language guides. You don't need to lug your own along.
The house is spotlessly clean: bright, cheery and cozy. The bed is above average and the shower is excellent. The kitchen has dishes, utensils, pans, oil, vinegar, spices, a refrigerator, microwave and stove top. We walked 2 blocks to the neighborhood store and had a blast shopping for supplies and cooked dinner at home. On the corner just steps from the apartment entrance is a cute pizzaria.
When we contacted Valentina she got back to us within a few minutes. I had difficulty starting the dishwasher and she wrote immediately letting us know how to start it. She also let us know if we wanted to leave it she would start it later.
Location: It is about 7 blocks down from the train station. We found if we stayed in the train station we could walk almost home by the time the train got to track 25 ... then just a couple of blocks out on the street with the cars. The neighborhood is safe and the apartment is quiet. It's on the second floor and there is a lift. The apartment is as it's pictured .... darling, cute and super clean. (love that!) Honestly, everything is provided ..... I would say absolutely that Valentina thought of everything.
Enjoy this home .... and enjoy Rome. This wonderful apartment made it all come together for us. Thank you so much Valentina and David ....
