I had the most wonderful stay with Elsa and a room in her stylish apartment is the perfect place from which to explore Rome. As well as being quiet and comfortable, the room was very clean with the bed made each morning, and breakfast was provided. Proper shutters mean that you can have a deep nights sleep in a dark room, and during the day the doors can be opened onto the balcony.
More importantly Elsa was just so lovely and helped with all my needs before running the Rome marathon and recommended great places to eat. I would thoroughly recommend staying at Elsa's place, and I would certainly stay again when I am next in Rome!
