Jayne from Australia (9/10)
The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed. The sun coming in of a morning was so nice. The location was great, offering more space than right in the centre of Rome but was a super quick and easy walk to the Metro and 3 stops to the centre.

Braysher from Australia (10/10)
Location was perfect- can walk into Rome central. Restaurants, bars and supermarkets close by. Owner was extremely helpful and appreciated being able to drop off our bags prior to check in. Double glazed windows were a bonus to soundproof the outside traffic.

The apartment is very comfy. We stayed with 3 kids and 2 adults and had a wonderful stay. About 30 mins walk to the Colosseum with many wonderful restaurants and ice cream shops in the vicinity of the apartment. We arrived at midnight and were welcomed by our friendly host. Would definitely stay here again.
