We really enjoyed our stay in Rome at Francesca's apartment. The amenities were wonderful (like having a washer and great aircon), and the outside terrace was absolutely picture perfect and so relaxing after a long day of touring. Francesca was very accommodating and able to meet us as soon as we arrived from the train station. Though Rome is very large, we found her apartment and neighborhood to be extremely convenient. We were able to walk everywhere, and it is located between the Vatican in one direction and downtown Rome (where the main tourist attractions are) in the other. I would highly recommend staying at Francesca's!
