Riccardo was in touch with us once we booked his place. He was very helpful with the advance bookings for the Vatican and even provided us info on the tour operators. His house is easily accessible with the directions given on the page and upon arrival he patiently sat with us and explained all the must-see and not-to-miss things in Rome.The house is very spacious and beautiful .The beds are very comfortable and the breakfast is sumptuous with a variety of cookies, jams and coffee. His mother was very helpful though we would often trouble Riccardo to help us to act as the interpreter!! His house is easily accessible by bus and tram which are just 2-3 min walk. Departmental stores and lots of restaurants are just around the corner. He even took us around Rome and we had a wonderful time at the couch surfers meets and tasted the best Tiramisu in the world. It was a pleasure to interact with his grandmother too.We had a wonderful stay at his place and we highly recommend his house for anyone who want to have a feel of Rome with the locals.
