I booked this apartment for my daughters 18th birthday present. I was a little worried as I had never done this before: booking flights, transfers and accommodation separately.

Natalia and Walter were very helpful in E-mail responses. We were met at the airport as arranged by them and we arrived at the apartment and it was everything that they had promised (apart from the internet did not work with my PSP). A friend of theirs met us at the flat and explained everything and then was available by mobile throughout our stay despite her busy schedule.

The flat was really quiet and minutes from the Colosseum, some lovely cheap restaurants (Clementine opposite the church was fab!), a supermarket, a local fish and veg street market were close too and the bus stop was right outside the door. I felt safe the whole time we were there (which is a priority) and we were so close to all main tourist sites. We bought a Roma Pass and this covered travel and entrance to the forum and the Colosseum and others.

This is an ideal place for couples or a small family as a base for visiting Rome which was a friendly clean and vibrant place to visit. It will stay in our hearts and memories for a long time to come.

My only regret is we never met our hosts in person for letting us use their home as they were in the USA. I am excited for the next time I can visit and take my husband who could not come last time.

I would highly recommend this apartment!
