Decked out in intense colours and on the fourth floor with no lift, Gladiator Stripes isn’t one for the faint-hearted. We’re big fans of the look though, and it’s clear that the place is very well-kept. The host, Mary, also pushes the boat out when it comes to service - there’s a daily cleaning service and someone at reception until 11pm, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about.

Host
This home is managed by Maria Alberta
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Maria has several flats in the same building, and runs them almost as a hotel. The level of service she offers is brilliant, but you still get the freedom of a holiday rental, and all in the shade of the Colosseum.
