"This apartment was prefe...

"This apartment was prefect for us and our two young children (ground floor). It is beautiful and well-cared for, close to the centre of Rome, while the area itself is surprisingly quiet. Marco was on hand for any questions and provided an excellent welcome and lots of useful tourist information. He even found an evening babysitter for us! Our stay was perfect from all points of view."

Great Host!

Our 1st time at a VRBO was fantastic. The host, Marco, organized our airport-to-apartment transportation, checked us in, provided details about the apartment, and even gave us a map highlighting key attractions in the area. I accidentally locked myself out of the apartment on New Year's Eve at 8 o'clock at night, leaving my family stranded. Marco generously traveled 30 minutes each way to let us back in, and he didn't charge us for the assistance. Our time in Rome was truly delightful. We loved the apartment's location and, in particular, cherished the personal touch of renting someone's place—adding to our overall experience.

Apartment near the Colosseum

This apartment is very well located near historical sites, restaurants, grocery store and taxis. Marco the host was great. He provided us with directions and information which made our trip more enjoyable. He also made arrangements for a driver to take us to the port.

Fantastic in Every Way

Wonderful apartment in the heart of Rome. 2 blocks from the coliseum. On the non touristy side of the coliseum. Easy to find delicious affordable restaurants. Safe little neighborhood. Marco was extremely responsive right from the first email. From the reservation to the checkin and check out. We were there for 4 days and he checked in a couple of times to see if we needed anything. Unit had two nice bedrooms and a sitting room. Kitchen has everything you need. Nice shower and washing machine. Pictures shown are accurate. Marco was the perfect host. He met us on arrival and check out, explained the keys, gas stove, washing machine and getting around the neighbourhood. Marco allowed us to drop our luggage earlier than checkin so we could get to a tour on time. Marco arranged a driver from the port and then to the airport for us. Giovanni the driver was on time and a fair rate. (Transport can be tricky) He has a binder in the suite, that explains getting around by bus, metro, restaurants, grocery etc. We quickly found our favorite pizza/ focaccia by the slice spot, gelato, cafes and restaurants in no time. Pizza by the slice at Pizzería di Sforza Piero €2.50 per person Naumachia Risorante had delicious Handmade Lasagna at €8.00 Espresso’s €2.00-3.00 Marco left us a bowl of fresh fruit upon arrival. It was so unexpected, delicious and appreciated. The local oranges are fantastic! When back in Rome we will certainly look forward to staying there again!

Rome

Amazing location to everything. Very comfortable place to call home as myself and my kids aged 22 and 26 explored Rome for 4 days. Marco gave us so many recommendations and the binder with information was very helpful. Totally recommend.
