Arturo’s place is in a fabulous location SO close to the Colosseum, metro, bus lines but not at all in the busy-ness of it. The large bedroom is in a sweet apartment full of art; the bed was so comfortable, and we loved the big window that could open up to the city neighborhood outside. The shared bath was right out the bedroom door to our room, and we always felt comfortable during our stay there. Arturo helped us figure out some transportation routes and one morning served us a fresh squeezed orange juice with those lovely reddish-on-the-inside oranges we’ve eaten only here. He was a gracious host and every part of our stay went smoothly. We had some good eats in the neighborhood and being so close to the ancient ruins made it easy for only a two day stay. We Metro’d to the Vatican one of those days and enjoyed walking through many different Rome sites on the walk home in the evening and felt safe coming back late at night. We highly recommend Arturo’s place!
