This was a wonderful apartment, and Anastasia was the best possible hostess! Due to a travel mix-up, I ended up arriving one day late, so Anastasia allowed another member of my party to take the lead on check-in. We really appreciated her last-minute flexibility, and her communication throughout the trip was fast and friendly. She arranged airport connections, gave great tips about local eateries, and was just super sweet. The apartment is huge (beautiful high ceilings), spotless, and full of helpful amenities like a microwave, a teakettle and a washing machine. There were extra linens and lots of towels, as well as clearly labeled heating/cooling and very fast WiFi. Although it is up two flights of stairs, the climb is worth it for the comfort that you find at the top! The apartment is only a couple of blocks from the Colosseum, and if you want to avoid the crowds in that direction, there are several bus stops and tram stops within one or two blocks. We went to Pompeii for a day and when we came back we all agreed that it felt like coming home. What a great experience!
