Barbara's house is a perfect retreat within the exhilaration of Rome. It is a great location within walking distance to most of the major attractions with bus and tram lines available for longer excursions. Excellent restaurants are literally just outside your door and bustling piazzas only a few steps further, yet the flat itself is quiet and private. The location is safe and friendly. A tiny, well restored antique elevator will carry two people at a time to this airy fourth floor flat. Barbara greeted us at the front of the building when we arrived and communicated with us easily in English. She showed us how to use everything in the apartment, provided maps and written information and stayed in touch with us using the Airbnb website through our entire stay. We are Airbnb Super hosts and use Airbnb often when we travel. Barbara's flat may be one of the best Airbnb rentals we have ever stayed in. We recommend her highly.
