Sara is a wonderful host and her place is a gem, highly recommend! We visited for a week, coming from NYC.
Location: tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, only 8-10 min walk from the Ottaviano metro station. Secure building with elevator. We felt completely safe.
Apartment: what a view!! We chose this for the balcony and so glad we did. The balcony overlooks St. Peter’s basilica and with all the beautiful plants she had, it felt like a little garden oasis. It was SO romantic that my fiancée decided to propose to me on the balcony! There is also an outdoor table which is nice for us to eat and enjoy our own private dining.
There is AC which was great to have when it was 90 and humid outside. No issues with hot water with the shower. Bed was comfortable and with the curtains making the apartment nice and dark, it made sleeping very comfortable!
Hospitality: sara goes above and beyond. She provided complimentary bread, cookies and fruits, juice and a nespresso machine. We certainly saved a bit by having breakfast right there.
She was always very quick to respond, gave very clear instructions on check-in and was there in person to explain certain things about the apartment. When we had issues with the nespresso machine,
she immediately replaced it. She also offered to get us a cab to the airport when we needed to leave.
She is also an amazing artist so we bought one of her custom frames!
We definitely would come back to her place!
If you’re looking for a place to get away from the hustle and bustle, this is the place.
