I had an amazing time at Silvia's apartment. It's very comfortable, and every bit as beautiful as the pictures suggest, maybe even a little more so. Silvia herself was a gracious host and very accommodating. I arrived more than a little late past my intended check-in time after getting, hmm, uh-humm, hach, uhumm, uh, sorry, got something stuck in my throat there, after getting lost in Rome (I know, embarrassing). She waited up for me very patiently and still took the time after I arrived to walk me through everything, even describing the metro system and making recommendations for places to check out around the neighborhood, which itself is quite nice. There's a nearby metro stop and an open-air market with fresh produce. I wish I could have stayed longer but I thoroughly enjoyed the two nights that I was able to get. Thanks Silvia!
