Marco was a very kind and available host (he loves next door). He was very helpful at every turn. The apartment was a bit cold, being late November, but he helped us with the heat (which worked very well) and plenty of extra bedding and towels. The building is old, which meant there were lots of creaky floors/beds on the upper sleeping levels. I would recommend bringing a sound machine for the kids.
The location was absolutely perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better street or starting point for our explorations each day. Bookstores, great restaurants, our favorite gelato, and more - right on our home street.
The apartment was stocked with many basics, and it wasn't too difficult to pick up the other things we needed nearby. The washer/dryer was a huge benefit and worked well! We really enjoyed our time in Rome!
