I travelled for almost over 24 hours.
I was so tired when I arrived.
I got to Giusi and she showed me round the place which was small but if you are travelling and want somewhere safe and to have a place to come home to it's perfect. Why would you want to spend all day inside in Rome? It doesn't matter that it is small, it has everything you need.
She gave me a meal of bean soup and bread when I arrived, a special treat that was very much appreciated. The fridge was full of food I couldn't eat it all!! Although I am a small woman..
I ate her strawberry cheesecake, it was exactly what I needed. Delicious!
She taught me about Italian food, which when you really learn about food you learn about history too. I did a class with her and it was wonderful. I was welcomed into her family home and met everyone while cooking.
The apartment was clean and she had such pride in her home and her family were very welcoming. I came to Italy for work and I got such love and knowledge staying with her.
I don't think you will get such hospitality from another air BnB host.
One month from Australia to stay in Italy and staying with her, I felt like a part of her family. She wasn't intrusive but there for me when I needed. Beyond and above expectations.
She will defiantly be someone I will visit just to say hello even if I am not staying in her home. A wonderful generous, staunch and wonderful human,
