Piera was really welcoming from the moment we booked her apartment, sending helpful travel information and directions from the airport. Piera also welcomed us very warmly, even giving my daughter a lovely bottle of wine as our trip was to celebrate her 21st birthday! She also gave spot on local information about local places to eat, the metro etc. The apartment matched the description and was really clean and perfect for our needs. We chose it partly to have somewhere with enough space not to feel cramped as we were staying for about a week and it certainly met our needs. The location was also really good - we walked pretty much everywhere, using the nearby metro only once for the Vatican City - walking back from there in the end and walking everywhere else, including up to Villa Borghese (the Borghese Gallery was wonderful). If you are not so keen on walking, the apartment is still near to the Colosseum, Forum and Capitoline Hill amongst other sites of interest and metro stations for both lines are only minutes away. We enjoyed being based on Cavour, wandering around the Monti district, and felt spoilt for choice when it came to finding bars and places to eat when we didn't make our own food. This was my first time of using Airbnb and it was a very positive experience, made all the better by Piera's warmth and lovely apartment! I know where I will stay when I come back to Rome!
