Stefania was a fantastic host. Even though we did not meet her in person Rita met us when we arrived and was very helpful. There were maps, recommendations for local restaurants and transport. The apartment was clean and cool and in a lovely quiet location 10 minutes walk from the wonderful madness of central Rome.
We would recommend taking Stefania up on her offer of organising a taxi to and from the airport as this made the trip so much easier.
The area has some lovely restaurants. 'Goose' was a favourite of ours, small supermarket, pharmacy and much less expensive souvenir shops if you are looking for gifts.
If we visit Rome again we will be back in touch with Stefania.
many thanks
