Great place to stay at! Upon our 3-hour delay flight from Newark to Rome getting there, my boyfriend and I took the public transportation route and got lost along the way for a while (literally missed a stop on a train that was leaving Rome, oops) and with no WiFi. A couple hours after finding our way including a taxi driver who left us at the wrong side of town and finally getting an opportunity to reach the host, Francesca's business partner Alex was cordial enough to make his way to the apartment after we were a few hours late for our appointment and check us in. He walked us through the apartment and was even gracious to give us tips and recommendations for places to go to and how to get there. Even Francesca's prompt reply to our text one night about asking her for a great gelato spot was much appreciated.
The apartment is situated in a great location, only a bridge away from the Spanish Steps and a few streets away from the Vatican City. Every landmark is pretty much walking distance from where we stayed, which was awesome. Very nice and secure environment, and the apartment was wonderfully designed. As an interior designer myself, I can agree Francesca has great taste!
Another great thing about this Airbnb is Francesca offers a car service to and from the airport. Since we had a delay, we were up in the air about whether or not booking the car service, but had I known how things could turn out, I would have booked it if I could go back in time. That being said, if you don't know your way around Rome (and it was my second time there), I would highly recommend you take the car service.
Thank you Francesca and Alex for our incredible stay at Rome! Your customer service doesn't go unnoticed. :D
