Giacomo was a good host. He was attentive and very helpful. He gave us a local map and gave us some useful tips. He even offer us a visit to the ice cream down stairs. My daughter loved the portable wifi, which was useful when we were on the streets. As there was no immediate need for the apartment on the day of departure, Giacomo kindly let us leave our luggage there for a few hours more. We used the taxi he recommended and the driver met us at the rail station. The driver did not speak much English but was polite and helped us carry our bags. The driver was on time, polite well dressed and helped us with the bags. Overall, we had quite a pleasant experience. There was even a Gelato shop within 20M. The short comings, if any is that the apartment was not as close to the Spanish Steps as expected. It was closer to the citizen's square. Having said this, the walk to the Spanish steps was only about 8 minutes. The walk was also quit pleasant as there were nice shops on the way. We did not mind the walk at all. The other matter that slightly bothered us was the rubbish collection for the building was placed at the entrance of the building, which I suppose most Rome old building may also have similar arrangements. This said, we had a very good experience and would hope stay in this apartment again on our next visit.
