Francesca is a generous and professional host and my wife and I enjoyed staying at her lovely apartment while in Rome for 11 days.

She was in contact with us before our arrival and was waiting for us outside when we arrived. Francesca walked us through everything to do with the apartment and even gave us some great recommendations for food and groceries in the area.

The apartment was clean and looks just as advertised. A nice bonus that wasn't mentioned is that it overlooks a private courtyard with a bubbling fountain that adds to the ambiance.

It is in a great location that is outside the main tourist areas, giving access to streets and businesses that are popular with Italians (but still have staff who speak English). Very important is that two metro stations are within a short walk, making it easy to get to and from the airport or regional rail, and making day trips outside Rome much easier.

I would happily stay at Francesca's place again, and would recommend it to friends.
