This was my wife's and my experience with AirBNB. It was a very nice experience - from beginning to end. Our host was easy to communicate with via email, was nicely flexible with our check-in time, was cordial and friendly when we just happened to meet him in person, and attentive to our concerns (how to work the TV, air conditioning) through his daughter who met us upon arrival and oriented us to the apartment and neighborhood.

The apartment itself was nice. Although not luxurious, it was comfortable and clean. We are not used to apartment living so everything seemed tight to us, but that is apartment living and that is apartment living in Rome! It was a treat to come back after a long day of touristing to watch my wife's favorite TV shows in Originale with the SKY network. Via Del Boccaccio is a very charming street with a number of shops right there as well. The little mini-mart across the street was convenient and staffed by extremely friendly people, as was the great shop almost right below us that sold prime cuts of beef, sandwiches, wine, snacks, etc. We even went to one of the ristorantes on Via Del Boccaccio and we enjoyed a delicious Roman meal.

The location of Trevi Fountain 2 was superb for our needs. It was, as advertised, close to the Trevi Fountain, but also within walking distance of the Borghese Gallery, the Spanish Steps and virtually any of the other historical attractions, if you have a good pair of shoes and an energetic step to your stride.
