I could not have asked for a better “home” for my first visit to Rome. Cristina’s apartment is so cute and comfortable. I was there for just over a week, and it really did feel like I had a home for my stay, and in such a cute neighborhood in a great location. Cristina met me in person when I arrived, and gave me good information about the area. She also brought me fresh fruit from the farmer’s market, which was so sweet, and a welcome addition to my breakfast each morning. She was as accommodating as possible with my very early arrival, and with a request to stay slightly past my check-out time. She also helped arrange my cabs from and to the airport. During my stay, when I had questions, she responded quickly every time. One of the BEST meals I had the entire week was at a restaurant she had recommended, Ragno D’Oro. Definitely take her recommendations seriously. They are good. It was also great to have a washing machine available so that, after my week’s stay in Rome in its hottest season, I could leave with all clean clothes for the next stop on my trip. I recommend this place highly. On my next visit to Rome, I won’t bother to research housing. I will just check to see if this apartment is available and book it again.
