Max was a fantastic host. He was there on time and made us feel very welcome. He told us about and showed us how to use all the amenities in the apartment. The apartment itself is very nice and was clean and neat when we arrived. We enjoyed the windows in every room and were able to keep them open without problems with mosquitoes or other bugs, so the apartment felt more open and airy. We stayed here with a baby and there were a bunch of toys, a play mat, a high chair, and a pack-and-play available in the apartment, which kept our baby well-entertained and well-rested.

The location of the apartment is also great. There is a light rail stop directly outside that brings you to the main touristy parts of Rome, and that also connects to the train from the airport. The Trastevere neighborhood was beautiful and lively at night without being packed with people. It was a welcome change from the center of the city. I would stay at Max's place again next time I visit Rome.
