Communication with Emilio before arrival was great, he give us detailed instructions on how to get the apartment including photos of landmarks we should look for. Emilio was there to meet us at the apartment with some advice for things to do in Rome. He gave us our bearing for where we were and how to get to the major attractions and some great suggestions for food in the area ( Il Grottino pizzeria was great) . The apartment was a reasonable size. The bedroom had a double size bed and effective air conditioning that saved us in the night which was very welcome. The shower room and toilet were of a good size with hot water within 20 secs and a kitchenette with the basics, although we didn't use it ourselves. Emilio's apartment is in about 20 min walk from the Colosseum but also has good bus access into the centre of Rome and was everything we needed for a couple of nights in Rome.
