Desiree is an incredible host, sweet and caring. She sat with us and explained/showed us on a map the most important sites in the city, including her personal favorites places/restaurants/bars/shopping/etc. This kind of info is priceless. Her place is comfy and beautiful. Everything was in working condition. The details she had for us fresh flowers, water, biscuits, the breakfast, and we even received a parting gift of local pastries all of these made an unbelievable stay. I honestly feel like her apartment is another "must go" if you want to experience Rome.
