Thank you for having us in Rome!
HOST: Francesca was very quick in responding via AirBnB and Whatsapp (great for contacting international contacts through data plan!). She personally met us at the apartment to show it and give us pointers on sightseeing and eating in Rome. She stocked up on maps, brochures, and guidebooks for her guests (very helpful).
LOCATION: Apt is located in the Prati district with lots of shops and restaurants. Apt is about half a mile from Lepanto and Ottaviano metro stops. We were able to walk to the Vatican (0.5mi), Pantheon (1mi), Trevi Fountain (1.5mi), and Colosseum (2.5mi).
APARTMENT: fourth floor (european level) flat with elevator; wifi worked well throughout stay; 3 spacious bedrooms each with an a/c unit, large closet, queen bed (I think), and twin bed; 3 recently renovated bathrooms each with a shower (two are slow draining, but will be fixed), toilet, and sink; kitchen with clothes washer; and living room.
OTHER COMMENTS: we took the metro and walked to the apt from Roma Termini train station; all other days we took the bus or walked everywhere; Francesca helped arrange airport pickup for two in our party during arrival and cruise port dropoff during departure; We met the housekeeping lady when we were leaving so the apt is cleaned well after each stay. Highly recommended!
