Location! Wow, we couldn't imagine a better location - it was perfect. Steps away from Piazza Navona on a lovely cobblestone street with terrific local restaurants and funky boutique shops right outside our door. We fell in love instantly. We were only in Rome for 4 days, but an important 4 days because it was our last family vacation before our eldest daughter heads to college (as a history major). She was moved to tears more than once by the beauty and history of Rome. Our 16 year old liked Rome as well but was truly kept happy by the seamless WiFi, large bedrooms, private bathroom, and effective air conditioning that turned Silvia's apartment into an oasis during the July heatwave. My husband and I enjoyed having our own bedroom/bathroom separate from the kids as well as Silvia's incredible responsiveness to all of our questions and requests. She arranged airport transportation as well as a private tour of the Vatican. She even answered my last minute question about how to dress for the summer (outdoor) opera. Thank you Silvia for helping to make our stay so special, for your wonderful hospitality, and most importantly for the use of your beautiful apartment!
