Francesca is both a wonderful host and a wonderful person and her flat is equally wonderful so all in all, I had a wonderful stay! I lived in Francesca’s apartment for one month, and it is an ideal flat for a long-term stay in Rome. The apartment is very clean and modern and has all the conveniences you’d expect from such an apartment and, most importantly, the bed was very comfortable! The flat is very secure and quiet and the large balcony, which is like a second room, is a great place to sit and relax. The public transport facilities in the area are excellent, with good connections to the centre of Rome, and buses, trams and Trastevere station all in walking distance. There is also a supermarket literally downstairs from the apartment as well as cafes and restaurants. Every Sunday, just outside the apartment building, is a large market on Via Portuense, and the famous Testaccio market is also in walking distance. Francesca is a very kind and helpful host who promptly dealt with any questions I had and was always available to help. I really enjoyed meeting and getting to know Francesca and I simply can’t recommend her place enough.
