Marcella is a gracious and welcoming host! We arrived earlier than anticipated and despite a language barrier chatted with residents Rita and Giuseppe while we waited for Marcella. Once she arrived, Marcella showed us how to use all the keys, and walked us through the lovely apartment showing us where everything was and how it worked. The apartment was spacious and has all amenities needed for your stay in Rome. The location is perfect, right outside Vatican City, with the bus stop just right down the hill - making easy transportation to and from key sites in Rome. When trying to use her curling iron, my girlfriend tripped a breaker. Once I sent a message, Marcella responded almost immediately and was able to come over within a short amount of time to show us where the breaker box was.
Papa Rex is a restaurant right down the street, and we enjoyed a fabulous meal our second night there. We also stopped at Mox Cafe each morning for cappuccinos to start the day, which is right around the corner.
Would highly recommend Marcella and this listing!
