Francesca was a fabulous host and met us at the apartment and the driver she got us to pick us up form the airport helped carry the suitcases up the stairs (a chair/suitcase lift is being installed so should help this matter soon). Francesca gave us a a few tips and had a whole stack of maps in the hallway and showed me a few places to go to eat that night.. Piazza Novona is literally 1 minute away. She also was kind enough to offer up her home number in case of emergencies as she saw I was with 2 kids and that "peace of mind was most important".

The initial entrance to the building was slightly worrying but when you step inside the apartment it felt absolutely amazing, I was immediately struck by the high ceilings and taupe white grey colour scheme, I am a modern design buff and need my living spaces to work and please the eye. I appreciate how everything was planned and well designed with lots of storage to hang clothes and put other items away (my son even opened one cabinet and played lego on the lid) , had a washing machine (but no dryer), bed was comfortable, the sheets clean, 2 clean modern bathrooms with all the items like soap hairdyer etc, the second bed was a fold-out sofa what was easy even for my 8 year old to open and close. The air-conditioning was working, the kitchen was a perfect size for prepping a small meal (my 12 year old daughter was inspired enough to want to cook us her first meal of carbonara).

This apartment is a corner unit with large windows opened out on to the streets and it made you feel lived like a real modern Roman, we walked everywhere the Vatican was around 10 mins walk, Trevi fountain around 10mins but we enjoyed more the journey to these locations, my kids loved the apartment and by day 3 knew how to find their way back from Trevi area.

Francesca recommended only restaurants that she had been to and liked we went to 2 of them and loved both, one was a gourmet pasta and the other gourmet pizza & mozzerella bar.

I would 100% recommend this apartment is amazing and location, its made me LOVE Roma even more. I would definately go back to stay again and recommend friends to stay too...

Another thing I most give huge appreciation and thanks to Francesca... during our stay my daughter's adult tooth fell out and she immediately helped us book an appointment for the next day, little did we know she booked us the best most advanced dentist in Roma (dentist to the president) he had a 3D printer and printed off a tooth for my daughter! my husband was very impressed and might have thought this was the highlight of his trip to Rome.
