We loved staying at Flora's apartment in Rome. She was excellent with communication. The apartment was walking distance to great food, popular sites, and nightlife. The AC kept us comfortable. First real full-size bed we had in Italy (usually it's two twins pushed together, even in nice hotels). Washer and dryer were much appreciated. We didn't cook, but the kitchen was well prepared for it. And there's a great little guestbook full of advice for touring Rome. Overall a wonderful experience.
