Thoughtful is the word that comes to mind to describe Francesco as a host. The apartment was simple and had the amenities of air conditioning and a washing machine-with laundry soap. Little touches like that made the apartment extra special for us, along with a stocked fridge for morning breakfast.
Francesco was responsive to our needs and recommended great restaurants for us to try in the neighborhood. Travestere is a wonderful neighborhood to explore and close enough to many sights in Rome to walk. I highly recommend Francesco's apartment.
