We had a wonderful experience with both Monica and Nicola as our hosts... And the apartment was absolutely perfect! If you're in Rome... This is THE place to stay.
Upon arriving at the airport, Monica offered to arrange ground transportation, this was so helpful, as there was 7 of us, so it was nice to not stress about one more thing.
The apartment was stunning! You can see St. Peter's Dome from every bedroom!! Absolutely gorgeous! Monica's husband Nicola met us at the building right upon arrival. He is a friendly gentleman and his English is excellent. He was so helpful, as he took the time to explain the apartment AND briefed us on the city and the surrounding area. We had so many questions and he answered all of them, and also provided a map and a helpful list of restaurants and sites.
As far as the apartment, Monica and Nicola have really thought about everything. They are true professionals and take great care of their property. The place was very orderly and clean. They provided 3 towels for each of us! There are also extra folding chairs in the hallway for larger groups like ours for the kitchen table. There was plenty of toilet paper, hand soap, dishwashing and laundry detergent to use too! Very thorough and complete!
We appreciate that there were plenty of electrical outlets to plug in and charge our devices. Their WIFI was strong and we didn't have any problems logging in or using it. This may seem simple, but this is not something you want to worry about on vacation. All other electrical items worked great: hair dryers and the washer/dryer.

Let's talk about location...amazingly convenient ! Vatican entrance is just a 5 minute walk. We had breakfast every morning downstairs in the cafe. There's also a pharmacy, bank, and stores below! We also never had a problem getting a taxi, the line up is right outside the building's door. And metro stops are just a couple of minutes away too. Great shopping and restaurants around the corner on Ottaviano Street.
Lastly, upon our arrival, on day 1, they left a really sweet gift basket with goodies and asked if we needed transportation to the airport upon departure ( we did), so they set it up for us! By the way, all the drivers that Monica and Nicola set up for us were good drivers, polite and on time.
We are definitely telling our friends about this property and when we come back to Rome, we hope to stay here again. Thank you Monica and Nicola for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home and for helping our experience in Rome be such a phenomenal one!
