What an incredible experience! Accommodations and hosts can be hit or miss no matter how much research you do, but I honestly must say that I hit the jackpot at Francesca and Marina's place. From the moment I arrived to my departure 6 weeks later, I was well taken care of. Any questions or concerns were answered straight away and I always felt so welcome. The apartment was sparkling clean and offered plenty of space, as well as lovely views from the balconies. I was the only guest, but the apartment could easily accommodate 3 or 4 people comfortably. The apartment building itself is very-well maintained and the doorman was very helpful. The location is within a 5 min walk of the metro and buses, so getting around was a dream! The neighborhood is quiet and friendly and provides a more authentic Roman experience away from tourists, but all the main sights and sounds were so close! I'm already looking forward to my next visit :)
