Giulio was waiting at the apartment to greet us at 9pm. He is a very welcoming, helpful and generous host providing all we needed to make our 5 night stay comfortable. He even left a bottle of champagne to celebrate New Year! Giulio personally showed us where to find the nearest supermarket and bakery/deli. The area is attractive with cobbled ,winding, narrow streets dotted with lots of lovely restaurants. We enjoyed living in a traditional and characterful Italian enclave. The apartment was great, it was warm, cosy and very well equipped (plenty of hot water, coffee for the expresso machine, jam, sweets, toilet rolls and condiments for cooking etc). Modern and airy, it was very homely; we loved returning after touring Rome on cold December days/evenings. The apartment is within easy walking distance of all tourist sites and shopping streets but there is a taxi collection point within a 2 minute walk from the apartment if needed. Ten taxis were waiting there on New Year's day at 9am! As a family with two teenage children we have travelled widely, staying in many different apartments. We all want to return to Rome and to Giulio's one day soon.
