Chiara has created the most lovely, comfortable, secure place for a long or brief stay in Rome. Planning and thoughtfulness has gone into creating a beautiful surrounding with furnishings, utensils, plants and flowers. This is truly a home that could belong to a friend you are visiting in Rome and not the strictly functional ARBNB with only the minimal amenities. The only possible negative is the location of the apartment in a building on a street strewn with trash from weeks or months of buildup and extensive graffiti on the walls of Chiara’s building and others for blocks in all directions. It’s just the way it is in Rome. The apartment was extremely secure, however, and we never felt unsafe in any way. We even had dinner outside three nights in a row just a five minute walk from the apartment. Chiara’s place is a must visit and next time in Rome we will try to stay here.
