We had a lovely time at Valentina's apartment! First of all, it is literally in the middle of Monti which is one of the most exciting and most beautiful parts of Rome. Just walk for one minute from Valentina's doorstep and you will find yourself on a beautiful little piazza with young folks gathering with bottles of wine, families hang out while there children are playing around, old ladies sit and have a chat, you can just hang out there and watch the street life pass by. There are also great restaurants, coffeeshops, vibrant enotecas, little art and antique stores just around the corner, and if you are up for sightseeing again: Colosseum and Forum Romanum are just a five minute walk away. That being said, the time we actually spent in the apartment was not that much.. :) but enough to say that it is beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, and well equipped for cooking, chilling, and relaxing. Although we didn't get to meet Valentina, everything went smooth, communicating was easy, her sister welcomed us with the keys and explained everything very nicely. Grazie for the great time, Valentina! We can definitely recommend anyone to stay with you and love to come back someday!
