First off, Fernando was a fantastic host who was there to greet us even when we arrived late to Rome. He gave us detailed information about the rental, but then answered many questions we had about Rome in general. Fernando is very familiar with the city and gave us tips on where to go, when to be there & what to avoid.

The rental itself was very nice - you can tell it was a family home that's been taken care of for generations. The rooms were spacious and accommodated our family of five perfectly. The cherry on top was the fruit basket, wine and essentials that Fernando left for us. I don't know what I was thinking when I booked the airplane flight, but we were starving by the time we arrived. It was like Fernando was a mind reader - a meal never tasted so good!

We didn't have any major problems during our stay. The only thing we were hoping for would have been a dryer for our clothes, but we just left our clothes on the rack overnight. There were also a couple of additional fees, such as a Rome city tax (nominal cost per person) and €30 for cleaning.

The place itself was very nice, a short walk to the metro. Lots of small grocery stores on the way of you're a family trying to save money.

We really enjoyed our stay in Rome and Fernando's hospitality was a big part of that. We had to leave early and he was there at early hours to help us check out. Great place, good location and a fantastic host. I can't recommend Fernando's rental enough, especially to families who need a bit of extra elbow room.
