We stayed in four different locations including Alessandra's place. This was our favorite. The location is perfect to do anything you want in Rome and still go back to a nice pleasant quiet area. It has just the right amount of amenities. The balcony is worth everything. It gives you a private space to relax and enjoy the city all on your own. It's perfect size for two or maybe three people the kitchen was wonderfully updated and stocked. I loved the espresso machine. Alessandra went through Maps and ideas to help us throughout the week. What a wonderful host, she was generous with her knowledge and time. She even lined us up with the perfect driver straight from the airport to her place. There are lots of wonderful areas in Rome but Alessandra has the most quaint one, it has wonderful access to anywhere you want to go.
