Marco's apartment was fantastic and I absolutely recommend it.

It's like the best of Rome: rustic but clean, old fashioned but comfortable. The highlight certainly is a tiny balcony overlooking the beautiful back end of the neighborhood, where we enjoyed the wine Marco left for us while watching the sunset both nights. It felt like we could have been in a different century, in the best way possible.

As for Marco himself, he came to meet us at the door and helped lug our suitcases upstairs, and was extremely responsive after that for anything we needed. He repped Romans well.
