Wonderful!

We had a great time at Vatican Firefly. The terrace was beautiful, the neighborhood was quiet for Rome, close to the metro and Vatican. Hosts were helpful getting us there and settled in.

Very nice hosts. Location is very good. Nice terrace. Comfy bed. Well equipped.Had a few problems, frying pan without a handle was replaced immediately. Very bad water pressure the whole week, little to none. Trust the hosts fixes this before any other guests checks in.

10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
From first booking communication with host was brilliant - proactive and prompt to respond . He arranged taxis to and from airport and both drivers were really helpful. We were met by his daughter at the apartment who explained everything very clearly. The apartment was spotlessly clean. Both the sitting room and the bedroom were large for a 2 person booking, and really well set out. Bathroom and kitchen both well organised too. The air con was really efficient but even in a hot September, leaving the shutters down during the day meant the apartment was pleasantly cool even without using air con. The terrace is a real bonus - yes it is as big as it looks in the pictures, and always has places for sun or shade. The location is excellent - 5 mins walk to Cipro Metro station and an easy 10 minutes to train station if you want to travel further. Vatican museum 15 minute walk. There are a number of good supermarkets on way to and from station, the nearest is 2 minutes. There is a cool rooftop bar also 2 minutes away - fantastic for evening cocktails. It serves pizza and more ambitious dishes too. This is a perfect place, in a perfect location with perfect hosts.
