Claudio's apartment was perfectly suited to our. needs; it is located on a quiet block in the very lively Trastevere neighborhood -- thus we got the best of both worlds. The apartment was in perfect condition, and Claudio took a very personal interest in us and our well being. He was readily available for any matter that might come up, small or large, although in fact we did not need to contact him often. His apartment will be our destination of choice should we be lucky enough to return to Rome.
