Our host Alessandra met us on the street with the driver whom she had arranged to pick us up at the airport. Her Italian warm welcome was the best start to our vacation! Her beautifully remodeled flat was in the perfect location (steps from the Metro) and had the modern conveniences with a great shower and bathroom! We loved the old charm and modern touches. She spent a full hour in recommending sites and restaurants and introduced us to another couple who was on our same flight from Chicago who were staying at another one of her flats across the hall. She was so thoughful and helpful!
