Anna Maria was wonderful in every way. She was available when we arrived and immediately came to the gate to pick us up when we rang her buzzer. She gave us a thorough overview of the clean, airy and secure apartment and the neighborhood, so we felt comfortable from the beginning. Whenever we needed guidance for where to pick up a legal taxi or the location of the best moderate priced shopping stores, Anna Maria quickly responded to our texts and emails.

The size of the apartment is actually very good. The rooms, including the bathroom, were some of the largest I've stayed in in Europe. When I booked the apartment, I was a little concerned that it might smell of cigarette smoke, since smokers were accepted. But, there was no smoke smell whatsoever and that concern was immediately put aside.

The apartment is, in my opinion, in one of the best neighborhoods (Trastevere) in Rome. We were close to great restaurants, bars and shops and away from the tourist crowds on the other side of the river. The cooking class and food walking tour (both exceptional) we took were within five minutes walking distance of the apartment. Such a plus!

My niece and I both agreed that when we return to Rome, this will be where we will stay. Best rental experience ever.
