Raffaello was a great host - we weren't able to meet him the day we arrived so he arranged to drop by another day so we could meet. Lovely guy, very friendly and was always available on the phone and emails if we needed anything.

The apartment is GREAT - four of us stayed and on the nights we stayed in there was plenty of room to hang out and have dinner, sit around the TV and chit chat. The kitchen is cosy but very practical. The pizza restaurant under the building does take-away pizza, was the cheapest food we found in all of Rome, and was delicious.

At the top of the street (1-2 mins walk) are lots of buses and a supermarket with everything you'll need, though expect to take two buses to most places. Train is slightly longer walk (10ish minutes) but also goes to lots of places including a direct train to Fiumicino airport which was very handy. There's a nice little cafe on the way to the train where we'd stop for breakfast.

Taxi from somewhere near the Spanish Steps was about €20... taxis seemed like a very affordable option late at night.

Overall the apartment was comfortable, had plenty of useful amenities closeby and was easy enough to get to. We all loved it and would definitely stay there again.
