We had a terrific stay at L'Aurora al Colosseo. This was our first time using Airbnb and chose this listing based off reviews as well as location. Roberta was an amazing host, greeted us to show us the apartment, and even helped us out by suggesting close by restaurants and sites. She was very committed to being available if we had any questions and checked in with us to make sure all was well.

The apartment is immaculate and I adored the artsy/eclectic style. She has a terrific library (the sitting room may be my favorite nook of the apartment), with a quaint balcony that we were able to enjoy our mornings on and sip espresso. The bed was soft and more comfortable than the 3 other hotels we had stayed in while in Italy. I absolutely loved the decor of the apartment!

The location is literally steps away from the Colosseum, but it's tucked away that it's a quiet getaway from Rome's busy attractions. Around the corner is an official Taxi station which was helpful for when we departed to the airport. Across the street is a grocery store which was helpful for small items like snacks, fresh fruit, and water. There are a handful of great restaurants and good gelato around if you don't want to venture too far at the end of your day. Based on Roberta's recommendations we went to
i Clementini, Divin Ostilia Wine Bar, and the Gelateria and had great experiences at all of them.
I highly recommend L'Aurora al Colosseo and Roberta!
