Location-Very near the Vatican/St. Peters. Metro and Bus stops are literally a block away, the bus system is Rome is excellent and despite what they say, it is free. Mariastella arranged for our pick-up for a party of 10 from Termini for us. The apartment is very near grocery stores, restaurants (including a McDonalds!), banks everything! It is a very quiet upper end neighborhood. There just is not a better location in all of Rome.
Property-We were a party of 10 (5 couples). The apartment was beautifully furnished, not the typical Ikea bed in a room situation. There was art and a fully furnished kitchen. A wonderful large terrace and the place was absolutely spotless. I can not begin to express how nice the apartment was and will only stay there on all future trips.
Host-Well, it just does not get better. She arranged cars for us, spent a lot of time reviewing sites and instructions how to use the mass transit system. Told us that if we paid for bus trips we would be the only people in Rome who did (which saved Hundreds $$$). She was incredibly kind and at one point one of our party needed to obtain a antibiotic for a sinus infection. Mariastella not only contacted her own physician, but went and got the prescription filled and brought it to the apartment for us, leaving it on the dining table. Her kindness and friendship at this point will be the bar from which all other AirBnB experiences will be judged!
Hurry and book with Mariastella, as word will quickly get around that this place and host is pure perfection!
