Carmen's apartment was both clean and safe and very well situated. For my first trip to Rome, I wanted to be centrally located so that I could walk to the two sites I had booked tours for - Vatican City and the Colosseum.
(I'm short, and walking briskly, it took me less than 30 minutes to VC, and about 40-45 minutes to the Colosseum)
Like the listing states, it is a stone's throw from Piazza Navona and Corso Vittorio Emanuele II - a major road through central Rome - I could hardly have made a better choice. It's not fancy, but it had everything I needed for my very brief stay in Rome. The wifi is good. The bathrooms are beautiful and the water in the upstairs shower was hot and strong. I had access to a small kitchen but didn't use it other than to boil water for tea, which Carmen kindly provides. I don't even remember if there was a TV because TV watching was not on my agenda.
The bed was more firm than I would have liked, but it was clean and the room was quiet and dark. I slept well and felt very safe.
Carmen's fiance Harry was there to meet me when I arrived. He gave me restaurant recommendations and kindly answered my long list of questions. He also was an enormous help when I had difficulty contacting the company scheduled to provide airport transportation the night before I was to return to the states and was in a state of near panic as I don't have international calling on my cellphone.
This was my first AirB&B. When selecting my rental, I decided to trust the reviews written before me and now after my stay, I agree that this was a very good choice. Thank you Carmen and Harry!
