Silvia is very kind and attentive to her guests. She was out of town when I visited, so she had a friend of hers meet us at her home. Her friend Chiara was also kind & showed us all the amenities. I was pleasantly surprised when Silvia left a prepaid cell phone for me to use in case I had any questions. This was very helpful since this was my first visit to Rome and was unfamiliar with transportation & the city in general. Prior to my visit Silvia advised the best way to get to her home from the airport. This helped tremendously, however since this home is in more of a residential area it's easy to get turned around, especially when the street names are really similar. Her home was very nice and clean as represented in her photos and is in close proximity to markets and restaurants. There is a note on the refrigerator stating that utilizing too much power will cause the breaker to shut off, this happened to me when using the washer. So be sure to ask where the breaker is, it's a quick fix. If you're looking for a nice hang out, just up the street from her house is a lounge called "CoSo". It's short for Cocktails and Social. The staff is great and friendly & the bartender is amazing! You'll get drinks like you've never had before. Be sure to ask about the "shower".
