First, it's a great value given the location and free parking. But what made all the difference in the world was Michele's team doing a bang-up job making the place available early given our 7:15A arrival in Rome. Beautiful place. Threw my daughter an 11th bday party and the living area readily handled the 8 family members that were there. We are walking folk and had zero issue hitting the sites near and farther (Coliseum was within our walking reach, even with my 11 year old). All around another great Airbnb experience.
