I stayed at Francesca's apartment for 3 months whilst doing my Erasmus at La Sapienza University. Francesca was an extremely kind and welcoming host, and I very much enjoyed my time staying with her. I had full use of the kitchen and my own bathroom almost all of the time (it is shared with her son but he only stays occasionally), and the bedroom was a decent size with plenty of storage (although the bed is quite a small single). I was mostly left to do my own thing, but Francesca was always very friendly and helpful. The location is what really makes this apartment worth the money - Trastevere is by far the best district to live in Rome and I am so pleased I chose to live here during my stay - the area has a really special feel and you are minutes walk away from countless amazing restaurants and bars, this is where my friends from all over the city always wanted to come in the evenings! But at the same time only 10 minutes walk from the river, half an hour walk to the ancient center and 40 minutes walk to the Vatican. The area also felt incredibly safe, even as a young girl walking back late at night. I would definitely recommend this apartment if you're looking for somewhere safe and friendly and wanting to experience the more local side of Rome. It is just worth noting that Francesca does have a medium sized dog who does bark and will tear things up if left lying around - he is very sweet and was absolutely fine with me but is worth considering if you are not a fan of dogs. Thank you again Francesca for having me!
