Francesca and Marco are two very kind and gracious hosts. They help you (e.g. among many other examples, on the first day I dropped my phone under a car and they got a stick to help me reach and retrieve the phone AT 11 PM AT NIGHT EVEN). They include you (e.g. Marco invited to me join his family to celebrate Christmas Dinner which I happily enjoyed). And they respect your movement and plans (e.g. they made themselves known and available via text and email but otherwise I was free to do whatever I want and come back to the apartment whenever. My great enjoyment in Rome is inextricably linked to my having stayed with them.
