We had a great week in Rome, and that was in no small part thanks to Silvia. She was so helpful, both before we arrived and during our stay. She helped us book taxis, she greeted us even though we arrived late at night, she left food for us, as well as bedding and towels, and she recommended some great local places (we really loved Il Gelatone ice cream shop and Il Forno Da Milvio on Via dei Serpenti, and the cool shops on Via del Boschetto - so nice to be close to the Monti district). The apartment was perfect for us; our two daughters loved the terrace and mum and dad loved having two proper bedrooms, with real beds! And as for the proximity to ancient Rome - wow. Our eldest daughter cried her eyes out on the last day because she didn't want to leave; I think we all hope to return one day, if Silvia will have us!
