What an amazing host. She was so accommodating and so nice and responsive. We arrived in Italy super early the day of check in. Ten hours!!! We messaged her to see if we could check in a little before and Maria had everything ready to go and allowed us to stay in WAYYYY prior to check in time, which was so kind of her. The apartment was very clean and a very short walking distance from the Vatican center! Everything is pretty close to it as well. Be mindful that Rome is a huge city so no matter where you are you can’t be close to everything at once. At the end of our stay, she let us once again, leave our stuff behind as we went around and came back to pick them up. I’d give her ten stars if I could for how much of an accommodating host she is and how kind she is.
