The location of Tommy's apartment is great -- it's centrally located within Rome so that you can walk to most places within 30 minutes (or if your feet are tired, it's a quick cab ride). The apartment is in good shape, as it was renovated a few years ago, and especially when you compare the price to staying in a hotel in the same area. It's literally less than five minutes from Campo di Fiori.

The apartment is located on the second floor, so not too far to walk up with your bags. There is also a washing machine, but what I appreciated most was the air-conditioning, as it allowed us to sleep soundly and at the right temperature! One thing to note is that the bathroom doesn't have a door, so there isn't much privacy (or you figure out a system on using it). It is a small studio/loft place (so the pictures are accurate), but we thought it was just perfect for what we needed.

I can't say enough good things about Tommy as a host. He's extremely responsive in all of his communications and very, very friendly. He loves the city of Rome and is sincerely interested in ensuring that you see the best of it (especially at night). Tommy even arranged for a car to pick us up at 3:30 a.m. to go to the airport -- and provided us with a helpful list of places to eat and drink at.
