We came in as strangers and left as friends. From the first moment we felt the warmth and friendliness with which Claudia and Marco treated us throughout our stay. The "continental" breakfast was in reality a five star buffet breakfast. At any time we needed help or asked questions they were always available and informative; about visiting sights, navigating the public transpotation system, food and life in Rome. Our stay with Claudia and Marco was a very memorable part of our visit to Rome.
