I had an amazing experience at Maria Teresa’s exceptional Roman apartment! First of all, the service was impeccable. Maria Teresa arranged an airport transfer for me and my fiends from FCO to her property. Carlo was there to give us a friendly greeting and provide us all the information we needed for our stay. A tasty breakfast was provided for each morning, including cereals, bread and jams, ham, yogurt. All the amenities you could ask for were offered. Last but not least, we had daily housekeeping service (I've never had that at an airbnb property) ! The look and feel on this place was of a genuine Roman residence, examples include the art, exposed wood beams, wood floors, furniture, brightly tiled kitchen, windows that open to the piazza below, and a roof top terrace to enjoy morning coffee or to relax in the evening. I’d also like to mention the overall convenience of the location. For example, the Pantheon was maybe a 10 minutes walk. The Vatican 25-30 minutes walk , the Forum 15 minutes, Coliseum 20 or 25 minutes. Trevi Fountain 20 minutes. There are great places to eat nearby, including a pastry shop 2 doors down that you want to resist but can't and a wonderful Sicilian restaurant steps away from the front door called “Elle Effe”. That place was so good we went back for a second dinner. All in all I’d say if you want a genuine and comfortable Roman experience, this place is it !!!

P.S. For a breathtaking view of Rome at sunset, walk from the top of the Spanish Steps to Pincian Hill. At the end of the walk there is a park with an overlook above Piazza Del Popolo. Amazing views !!
