We did not get to meet Simone, but his wife Dafne and son Romeo took excellent care of us, and made us feel very welcome. The apartment was very clean, and well represented in the listing. A beautiful space that has been in the family for 3 generations! Great location, very good pizza right outside, easy walk from Termini and Metro stations. Dafne gave us much help finding our way around. We would definitely recommend this for a short stay like ours, or even longer term. Grazie, Dafne, Simone and cute little Romeo!
