A fantastic apartment near the Colosseum
We had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Elena was a delight to deal with and kindly accommodated us when our flight times changed. The apartment is in a great location--removed from the busyness of Rome but easily accessible if you walk for a minute or two. As well. there are many restaurants, cafes and gelato shops close to the apartment. The apartment is very spacious, very clean and well equipped for any length of stay. I would not hesitate to stay here again! 10/10 Thanks again Elena!

Perfect space to rest after long days of exploring Rome. Great location near the colosseum. The bed was very comfortable, and our adult daughter said the pullout couch was comfortable too. It was a great find, and we would stay there again.

Perfect Location
We couldn't have been happier with our experience. Communication was great from start to finish. The flat is comfortable, and what can beat a 2 block walk to the Coliseum? There are many restaurants and coffee bars in the area, and a nearby store for staples. The flat is very quiet. Oh, and there's a 'personal' elevator. Great place, don't hesitate.

GREAT APARTMENT very close to the Colosseum
The hosts were fantastic and went out of their way to help with check an early check in as well as being available when we needed to ask questions. Large apartment close to a lot of great restaurants and a short walk to the Colosseum and a train station. Very comfortable and airy - we loved it there.

A Perfect Place
This apartment is in an ideal location to enjoy every experience Rome has to offer. The sights, walking through quiet neighborhoods, parks, shopping, great food, bus and taxi nearby. We had such a fabulous time, even dining in a night or two. WiFi worked perfectly. Thanks to our hosts, Elena and Raffaella, we had everything we needed, even recommendations on places to go and places to eat. Thank you for your hospitality and gracious welcome. We hope to return soon.

This apartment is in the perfect location to see all the sights in Rome. It is also close to wonderful restaurants. Our communication with Elena was excellent, and she made sure we had everything we needed. The bed is very comfortable, and we liked having a nice sitting room to relax in with espresso in the mornings. We would stay here again!

Quiet and comfortable top floor get-away in the heart of the Colosseum neighborhood
Exceeded expectations. It was so convenient to explore the Colosseum and Forum, but was also 5 min walk from the metro so we could get to Le Nuvola conference center where I had a meeting in less than half an hour. What stood out was the responsiveness of our host, Elina, who made our check-in seamless and gave great recommendations of local Enoteca and restaurants. What surprised us was how quiet the evenings were despite the proximity to the Colosseum. The apartment is located on a top floor and can be accessed through a private elevator. Truly felt like a cozy hideout after exploring the city. It was all around fantastic and next time in Rome we will definitely stay here.

Loved our Stay!
Highly recommend this charming and comfortable flat. The building is more beautiful than the photos allow. Elena is such a welcoming and attentive host and we had a fun and easy time staying there as a family of four, with two young children. Staying so close to the Colosseum was pretty amazing to have it as the back drop of our daily walks, especially lit up at night. The beds are very comfortable, including the sofa-bed. Elena gave great tips on where to eat in Rome and the Celio neighborhood. The neighborhood is very lively, but the flat is far enough away from the noise to make for a somewhat peaceful stay in the city.

Grandson & I enjoyed our 3-night stay so convenient for seeing Rome sights. Used both main bedroom and fold out couch - both were very comfortable. Used kitchen for quick meals. Host recommendations for neighborhood dining options very helpful -ate at cafe across street every morning. 10 minute walk to Colosseo metro stop gives quick access across city. easy communication via Whatsapp close to and during stay. AC worked very well during 90+ deg F period of our stay.

Wonderful host; great neighborhood location
This was a great location for seeing the standard sights in Rome. We were able to walk everywhere we needed to, and had a taxi stand nearby when we wanted to drive. The neighborhood felt so safe and there were several places nearby for an easy dinner and drinks. The apartment was perfect for our stay. Loved having the separate room with a TV that could be closed off from the bedroom. Elena was a great host and was easily accessible when we needed her. Would highly recommend this location.

Loved our visit to Rome
Our host was amazing, friendly, and helpful. The location is fantastic. The neighborhood has great restaurants and you can quickly walk to many destinations like the Coliseum which is just two blocks away. We loved the apartment. The bed was super comfortable and the couch folded out into a bed for our son. It was warm during our stay but the two A/C units kept us very comfortable. I can highly recommend this apartment and host.
