This is without a doubt the best place to stay in Rome. For starters, the apartment is astounding, with all supplies you would ever need for your weekend in Rome, and more. Three balconies. Unlimited hot water. Giant bed. Full kitchen. Very home-y. It is the perfect place - two minutes after walking in, I wanted to buy it outright. It is very close to the subway, a three-minute walk, and will get you anywhere in Rome.

What's more, Francesco and his wife are two of the kindest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. When my girlfriend's plane was six hours late, Francesco offered to wake up at 4AM with me to drive the thirty minutes to the airport, saving her the $60 cost of a taxi. He provides for all his guests detailed maps of where to stay in Rome, the distance between places, and a suggested itinerary of things to do. He is the greatest host Airbnb has to offer.
