“Fantastic stay – the host arranged a taxi and met me at the door. The apartment was spacious, spotless and exceeded expectations. Location was perfect, just a 5-minute walk to the Colosseum, and the quiet residential area was a bonus. A supermarket nearby meant easy cooking in the well-equipped kitchen.”
