Our stay at Eugene and Max’s apartment was perfect. My wife and I are a young quiet couple who love to travel and cook. The apartment was exactly as pictured in the quiet, non-touristy Monte Verde Veccio neighborhood. Having Eugene and Max nearby was very helpful, as they surprised us with afternoon espresso several times, helped us buy event tickets, picked us up from the train station, and helped us when we got ourselves locked out. Eugene’s husband Max speaks some English and they were happy to translate our needs over e-mail.

Being a cook, I was very happy with the kitchen, as well enjoying as the best farmer’s market and grocery down the street. Travel to the center was easy, via a short walk, and with Bus 75, Tram 8 or a Taxi stand just a few blocks away. As a bonus the bedroom had down pillows and a down comforter. The apartment was well air conditioned, quiet and very secure. We found ourselves hanging out in the neighborhood more often than heading downtown.

My wife and I work remotely online, so having two desk and an office space worked great for us. The internet speed was very fast, and I was able to use Skype for client meetings. The apartment is a Garden Level apartment but gets tons of light in all rooms.

We can’t say enough good things about this apartment. We stayed for a month and could have stayed forever. We plan to come back here next time we stay in Rome!!

Great apartment to get the feeling of real Roman Life!
