Clara's apartment in Rome is amazing - the most stylish place we stayed on our tour of Europe! - and also with lovely welcoming touches such as chocolates and drinks in the fridge. It's in a great location too, with the Colosseum just around the corner, but still quiet, and has lots of interesting little streets and shops around. Walking distance to the busier parts of Rome too. We'd recommend a trip to the nearby Musei Capitolini, the oldest museum in the world - when we were there, there was a great Archimedes exhibition on with some interactive exhibits, great for our 11-year-old, and the rest of the museum's archaeological collection is fantastic too. Loved it, would definitely stay there again.
