What can I say about Simone that other reviewers haven't already said? My partner and I spent 9 great nights at Simone's place and we had a wonderful time. Simone is an excellent host. Communication was great, he helped us in every way he could and arranged taxis for the airport. We loved the apartment, felt very comfortable and appreciated the special touches like the coffee, wine and treats. The place is located in a great local neighborhood in Rome close to everything. There's a nearby osteria called Osteria Antichi Sapori da Leo, with great lunch specials filled only with locals. We miss Italy already and can't wait to return! Highly recommended!
