There are two primary things that made our first ever Airbnb stay memorable:
1) the location
2) Maurizio
The flat is on a beautiful street and a 10 minute walk from the Colosseum. In fact, you can see the Colosseum at the end of the road every time you step out of the apartment into this beautiful city. Carrefour is a 7 minute walk.
Maurizio is a perfect gentleman and unhurriedly and concisely explained everything about the flat when we arrived. There were utensils, toiletries, tea, coffee - essentially even if we had arrived with no luggage, it would not have been a problem! M. had also left a list of recommended restaurants - one of which we tried and loved.
The apartment is in reality better than in the photos. The windows overlook small pebbled courtyards on two sides adding a very romantic Italian feel to the place.
We didn't want to leave and were very sad when we had to.
