We had a wonderful time at Elsa’s place. She is a sweetheart of a woman with a great apartment. She left us a kettle with coffee and tea and made sure we knew everything we needed to about getting in and out-a challenge considering that we know almost no Italian. She was very patient with us. It’s a very short walk to the colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palentine Hill, plus a bunch of good places to grand a cheap drink at the end of the night. I just wish I knew some Italian so I could’ve chatted with Elsa more. Recommend.
