Alessandra's apartment was a great place to call home during my week in Rome. It was clean, comfortable, well-equipped, spacious, quiet, and convenient. Listening to a Billie Holiday record on a phonograph and to a transistor radio was a particular treat! Although I did not meet Alessandra communication, check in and out were all great. Ample soaps, lotions, coffee, tea, and a bathrobe were lovely and welcome touches.
