Riccardo's place is just fantastic!! First of all the location is superb! It is located in the heart of the Monti quarter, where you can find everything you would like to find: from traditional trattorias and hip wine bars to vintage boutiques... and everything is tucked away in Monti's small squares and back streets. The nearest subway station is Cavour and it is right down the street. Line B brings you in 1 stop to train station Termini (where you can switch lines) or the Colloseum, but for the latter it is just as easy to walk down Via Cavour and Via dei Fori Imperiali. Than the appartment... It is situated in an authentic roman building, with equally authentic and friendly residents. It's spacious (large living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom) and has a design that's a mix between modern and traditional italian (with it"s beautiful wooden ceiling). It has all the comfort you can ask for: fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, central heating, airconditioning, ... Last but not least the host: Riccardo is very friendly and helps you wherever he can. If you have a question or a problem you can reach him easily and he will respond in no time. Before checkin he even had put a nice cold beer in the fridge so I could relax after my trip to Rome. I have been in Rome 100's of times and I can strongly recommend to book this appartment, if it still is available of course ;-)
