We stayed at this property for 12 nights in December, 2019. From initial contact with the owner to our departure, our impression has been extremely positive. Contact was easy, questions were answered promptly, the owner arranged for a driver to meet us at the airport, and he and his wife were at the property to greet us when we arrived. Because it was Christmas, they had provided some typical Italian seasonal baking, and the owner gave us a two-hour historical and practical tour of the neighbourhood, showing us some of the major sites of this historic city as well as the grocery store, restaurants, drugstore, bank, etc. We loved his enthusiasm for his city!
The photos on the VRBO site represent the apartment very well. It is exceptionally large, with a very generous living-dining room, two large bedrooms each with its own bathroom, wide hallway, and very well thought-out kitchen. With balconies on three sides and large windows, the overall impression is of a bright, spacious, clean and welcoming space. Beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped and the dishwasher and washing machine were appreciated. The property is in a quiet though central residential area of the city, and we enjoyed the neighbourhood very much. Many of the major historic sites of Rome are on the opposite side of the Tiber, but taxis are readily available and surprisingly cheap, and for those who enjoy walking, everything is reachable on foot.
We have rented through VRBO in several US states as well as in Germany, and this property is one of the best we have experienced - generous size and overall condition, equipment and furnishings, and warm and welcoming hosts. Highly recommended in all respects.
