Our holiday in Europe started in Rome and our journey with airbnb commenced with our stay at Simon's Suite.
We chose Simon's Suite because of its proxity (for us an easy 10 minutes walk) from Roma Termini and the many positive reviews.
Simon was waiting for us when we arrived and showed us to the suite on the first floor. He provided us with guides for Rome, a house guide and a local mobile phone. An excellent communicator when it came to explaining the apartment.
The suite is very well equiped - Simon had thought everything we might need to cook a meal - and the bed was extremely comfortable.

via Montebello has a daily market (the street for two blocks is closed) which we used to buy fresh vegetable and fruit from - the supermarket, in the next block, is well stocked and with the market will supply all your your needs.
A couple of doors along the street, Simon's recommendation of Ristorante Barbablu proved an excellent eatery.
As an older couple we found all of our needs at this location - even a screwdriver proved useful on one occasion.
If you are looking for somewhere to stay in Rome you don't need to look any further.
