The apartment with garden in Roma was wonderful! Roberta, Francesca and their father Roberto were very hospitable and of great help. We arrived on the day of the Italy v Spain game and we asked Francesca if she could recommend a place to watch. Not only did she recommend a place, but she made reservations for us! It was a great start to the stay. There are a few markets, laundry and really great restaurants in walking distance. But, best of all, the Colosseum is only a 15 minute walk. The house is perfectly appointed with a nice large garden to rest at the end of the day. We found everything we needed and the house was clean and tidy. One suggestion (I think for all of Roma) is that if you drive into the city, park in the parking garage and do not leave your car on the street. Overall, we had a great stay and met some wonderful people. Hope to be back again!
