Antonio and his son Alessandro were marvelous hosts—charming and very helpful during our five-day stay. They met us at the apartment, made sure we were acquainted with all the appliances and household features, and took time to talk with us about our plans and help us figure out the buses and metro system. Antonio even allowed us to practice our nascent Italian skills on him, which was much appreciated. Truly nice people.

The apartment itself appears to be new and spotlessly clean, and has everything you could want. Just outside the ancient Roman wall, the apartment building sits in a neighborhood of tree-lined streets, a short walk from the Borghese gallery and gardens. There are multiple bus and tram lines within 2 blocks. The Roman public transit system is excellent, and getting around the city was quite easy.

Many thanks to our hosts. We highly recommend staying here. A great experience!
