Alessandra’s place was absolutely amazing. The previous experiences I’ve had abroad were like stepping back into the past with outdated appliances and amenities. But Alessandra’s apartment was brand new! And everything was so thoughtfully done. It’s also located in one of the cutest alleys in all of Rome. We’d emerge every morning from the apartment to find tourists taking pictures of the alley because it really was that picturesque.
The location is absolutely amazing. We walked everywhere! It’s super close to the Colosseum, but somehow remains pretty quiet in terms of tourists. It’s a much better place to stay than near the Trevi or by the Spanish steps- those places can feel like a zoo! Highly recommend the Monti district for a stay.
And Alessandra was so kind to us! She helped me arrange transportation from the airport, she left us some wine in the fridge, and she was available to help out any time we needed her. She could not have been a better host. Thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back!
