Comfortable and Spacious
We had a wonderful time in Rome, in no small part thanks to the apartment. We enjoyed the quiet courtyard entrance to the apartment building, the hustle of the city street seemed distant, but restaurants, grocery stores, markets and more were all very close by. The Metro line is about 10 minutes away and the Coloseum is 15 minutes, walking. There are a number of busses that stop within a block or two, as well.
The apartment is clean, large, and fully furnished. Federica provided some bottled water and a snack for the kids when we arrived. She was super helpful and also helped us arrange a taxi/shuttle to the airport at the end of our stay. Far above what I expected, we really appreciated her.
We had a few challenges, but no complaints! 1.) My wife dropped laundry off the clothesline onto the downstairs neighbor's porch - this is a joy of living in an apartment like this, so again, not really a complaint! It was not difficult to retrieve. 2.) At one point the gate into the apartment complex was locked and didn't open how we expected it to. Luckily there were 3 other gates onto the property that were all open and I'm certain Federica would have come to help immediately if we had any troubles. 3.) The AC in the house was just enough to keep ahead of the 95F heat - I wasn't expecting AC at all, so this was also not necessarily a negative. To assist it we closed the shades where the sun was hitting windows, which helps.
This was a great place to stay and I hope to return.

Wonderful place, best host ever
The apt was spacious and beautiful. The best part was our host Frederica. She was so kind and gave us wonderful tips about the area and recommended a great restaurant that took such great care of us since we told them she sent us here. I will stay there again !
