We had the BEST stay at Laura's apartment in Rome. What a location! The apartment is in the most wonderful neighbourhood, RIGHT by the Coliseum (you can see it from the front door of the apartment) - but it didn't feel very touristy. On the same street are many lovely cafes, delis, wine shops, vintage shops... you'd never have to leave if you didn't want to! There is a lovely little piazza just across the road that is lovely to sit in with a glass of wine on a sunny day.

The apartment itself was lovely - extremely clean and tidy, with a comfortable bed. The bed for the third person was not ideal, just a fold-up single bed, but our father didn't complain! The view from the rooftop is just gorgeous. The apartment is very quiet, we weren't disturbed at all (except for the singing at midnight on Easter Sunday, and that was just beautiful).

Laura was a wonderful host - she welcomed us into the apartment, drew us maps to wherever we wanted to go, called museums to see if they had any last-minute cancellations, arranged our taxis... she was just great! We felt so lucky to have stayed here. Highly recommended.
