We were hesitant to book an apartment that didn't have any reviews, but somebody has to be first and we are glad it was us! Giulio answered all of our communication before and during our stay. He even met us at the apt. to make sure we had everything we needed and to go over small details to make our stay phenomenal. The apartment is tucked away in a nice building on a quiet street - close to the main street of Emanuel which will get you to everything you need - Vatican, Castle, churches, Pantheon, Colosseum, Palatine Hill, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, restaurants, shops, parks, the River Tiber, and many gelato shops! There are several delicious restaurants right outside the door of the building - which was nice after a long day of sightseeing.
The apartment has everything you need - it is brand new and Giulio has added a lot of nice touches - extra towels and pillows, specialty toiletries in the bathroom (shower is amazing!), top quality mattress - one of the best we have slept on in a long time. We hope to return to Rome and will definitely stay at Giulio's lovely apartment.
