Hi, does anybody have any experience with www.friendlyrentals.com? I have seen an apartment on their site that I like but havn't seen any reviews on them. They say they are made up of Italians and forgeiners but would there be a problem with communication there? I'm leaving on the 21st May so need some advice soon. Thanks very much.

Welcome to Slow Travel, Casey!

We have three reviews on rentals through this site, but all in Spain: Barcelona (reviews #1317 and #2039) and Madrid (#3199). Reading these reviews will be informative for a general impression, but no more.

Hi Casey,

I speak fairly pathetic Italian and it's usually quite easy to simple business transactions like your talking about. Especially in Rome, where many Italians know some English.

happy travels,
Cheryl
