Francesca's apartment was soooo much nicer than a hotel - plenty of room, nicely furnished, kitchen, laundry... It was like having a second home in Rome! The buses that stop nearby are really handy too. We really enjoyed the light breakfast foods, coffee and tea provided as well. The balcony is a bit scary if you're afraid of heights, like me, but eventually... I did enjoy it. Nice view! Highly recommended.
