In short, the property was fantastic value, in a great location and far exceeded our expectations from the original listing.
Me and my girlfriend stayed for 4 nights (at the end of August 2017) and, prior to our arrival, we were sent plenty of useful, friendly messages from Paola. Upon arriving we were greeted at the apartment and given some great pointers about Rome (e.g. tourist spots) and transport (e.g. Metro). This made things so much easier for us.
The apartment was immaculate and had all of the modern conveniences we wanted for the stay (e.g. electric hob, pans, air conditioning throughout). The property is also below ground which majorly helped with the heat in Rome at the time. It meant we could always feel cooler in the apartment during the day and night. Sound was minimal and we had no issues.
The property is located within a short walk of the Colosseum, literally 2 minutes away. The close side streets have some great restaurants, bars and there is a perfectly situated supermarket within 2 minutes walk of the apartment.
Overall we would return in a heartbeat and had the perfect weekend. We can't thank Paola enough and would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Rome.
