Maria was a wonderful host and we truly enjoyed our stay in Rome. The apartment is in the perfect neighborhood - slightly removed from the major sites so not thronged with tourists, but still easily within walking distance to everything (30 minutes walk along the river to Vatican, 15 minutes walk across river to Colosseum). The apartment itself was great -- recently remodeled with a designer's touch, perfectly sized for us and our two girls (ages 7 and 9). Internet was 12Mbps down, .75 up. Air conditioning was a welcomed break from the heat of Roman summer. Pizza place around the corner (Ai Marmi) is a local landmark, great both for pizza and as a destination for taxi drivers. Huge supermarket (Conad) 7-8 minutes walk down Viale di Trastevere. Maria was an awesome host: responsive with communication, flexible on check-in time, met us at the apartment to give us an orientation to the neighborhood. She even stocked the apartment with basic food/drinks including some treats that our kids enjoyed. Her neighborhood guide is the best we've ever gotten from an Airbnb host. It was a great stay!
