Right from the beginning, my experience with Iole was great. She was always easy to communicate with. When my husband and I arrived at the airport, the driver that Iole had arranged was waiting for us. He let Iole know that we had arrived so her sister Vicky was waiting at the apartment for us. Vicky was able to provide lots of information about getting around, where to eat, and tips for while we were in Rome.

The apartment was perfect for our needs. It wasn't huge, which was nice, but had everything we wanted and was really homey. There's a nice little kitchen area, which we never ended up using since there were so many restaurants right in the area, but it had everything we would have needed if we had decided to cook. The apartment has air conditioning, which is nice since I know many places in Europe don't. There are some guidebooks available, which were really helpful.

The apartment is in a great location with tons of restaurants and shopping right down the street. The pedestrian bridge across the Tiber is about a five minute walk, so it made getting to all the main sights incredibly easy. My husband and I walked everywhere we went. The Vatican and Colosseum/Roman Forum/Palatine Hill areas are both under forty minutes to walk to. The Pantheon was maybe a twenty minute walk. The farthest places we walked to were Termini Station and the Borghese, both of which took under an hour.

This is a fantastic place to stay when visiting Rome!
