We had a very enjoyable stay at Andrea's flat. He was an impeccable host, gave us some useful tips for our stay, and was readily contactable for queries. The flat was perfect and suited us much better than a hotel would have done. Everything worked well. We were in an ideal location with plenty of transport links nearby, a 24 hr supermarket round the corner, and lots of restaurants on the doorstep. We could actually see the colosseum from the flat and most of the sights were walking distance anyway - sturdy footwear is definitely advisable. Extra touches that were much appreciated included being able to store our bags until it was time to leave for the airport, Andrea arranging door-to-door airport transfer for us, and a welcome bottle of prosecco :)
