Three features of this VRBO rental make it a wise choice for a traveler eager to experience Rome at its best. I so chose and, after a two week sojourn, I haven’t a single regret.
First, the apartment is cozy, immaculately clean and - a commodity rare to Rome in any season - supremely quiet.
Moreover, the amenities are exhaustive: from refrigerator to microwave, oven to washing machine, wifi to TV, classic, stove top Italian coffee pots (caffettiere), even an umbrella - and the list goes on.
Second, there is Nino himself: not only is he a font of information, but he is also courteous and ever helpful. Moreover, he himself resides next door and readily makes himself accessible to a guest’s inqueries and requests.
Third: location, location, location! From fancy restaurants, to simple trattorias, pizza by-the-slice shops, and tavola caldas; a nearby, daily street market; a cab stand on the square; a supermarket around the corner; bus routes to Stazione Termini and the Piazza Venezia; Natalizia’s famous pastry shop and Sesto’s noon day dishes
My own favorite haunt soon became Santi Sebastiano e Valentino, literally just around the corner on the Via Tirso 107. Whether for a morning cappuccino and corneto or an exquisitely simple luncheon meal served up on freshly baked breads and focaccias, the waitresses and bakers could not have been more friendly.
On my next trip to Rome, I'll book Nino's House for sure.
