My wife and I came to Rome and stayed with Laura and her family in November. I have to say that this is by far the best experience with Airbnb that we have had. Laura and family went well above and beyond to make our stay great and easy from booking to leaving for the airport on the last day. Here are some quick pros and cons:
Cons - none really, except maybe location proximity to some sites like the Vatican. But public transport was easy and we were advised by Laura and family how to get around.
Pros - great location in Trastavere close to food, bars, shopping and tons of historical stuff; we were given easy to follow instructions on how to get to the apartment; tram stop right outside the front door; plenty of privacy; clean room and huge private bathroom; access to rooftop terrace; host was super attentive to our needs and delays helped us with tips, ideas and dinner reservations.
I could go on for the pros. Ultimately this was a great place to stay and Laura made things easy in Rome for a traveler. We would stay here again In a heartbeat. They have put together a book of local restaurants and other info that was super helpful.
Thank you Laura and family (especially Leonora) for taking such good care of us! We hope to see you again!
