The apartment was large, with high ceilings, and a modern kitchen and bathroom. It was clean, organized and couldn't have been better. Huge King sized bed was very comfy!

Roberta sent us a map of exactly how many bus stops before her stop. As we were walking to find her apartment, her friend Giuliana found us on the street and walked us to the apartment making it super stress-free! She showed us how to use everything - which was very helpful for non-Europeans who aren't accustomed to using things like the gas stove, exterior blinds, etc.

The bikes were FANTASTIC. Walking around all day looking at sites can be tiring - but having the bikes let us see so much more without being exhausted. And it was so much fun riding everywhere! Though a bit further outside from the main sights, I enjoy staying in quieter less touristy neighborhoods - and with the bikes it didn't matter anyway.

It wasn't a far bike ride to the Villa Borghese - there's a beautiful view of the city and you can ride your bike down a hill (very fun) to Piazza Popolo and you're right in the shopping district.

I also like the book she set up with recommendations on what to do. We went to the pizza place down the street. Very reasonably priced and deliciouos and wayyyyy better than the touristy areas. Also, as a tip the first night we were given an English menu. On the 2nd night we went to the same restaurant again, where we were given an Italian menu and noticed that the prices were actually cheaper. So ask for the Italian menu if you can.

Highly recommended!!!
