Andrea is a really good host in the true sense of the word. He will go out of his way to make your stay as comfortable as possible - right from the start. The apartment is really spacious and comfortable - with a really nice shower as well. Of course Rome is a city to eat out, but everything is in place to prepare your own meals. We did both. The check-in went very smooth, even though we arrived a little early. Andrea responded quickly and enthusiastically to any message. There is a decent sized supermarket in 3 mins walking distance and a Lidl in 10 mins walking distance. A highly rated bakery just around the corner with freshly baked ciabatta's and other things you might want to try. The metro is within 5 minutes walking from where you can discover the city. If you feel like watching a movie - Andrea's movie collection is impressive - but there is so much to see and do already in the city itself, so we didn't really get around to watching those. In short, we definitely recommend Andrea and his apartment.
