The room and surroundings are exactly as pictured, and all the amenities were accurate. I loved living in Francesca's apartment! It was very quaint, and the air conditioning was wonderful to have in hot, humid Rome in July. Perfect size for 2 people. It was close to the Colosseum and close to any major bus or metro lines to other Rome sites. Although I would once in a while hear people on the street, it never got very loud, and I was able to fall asleep and stay asleep without trouble.

Francesca herself was very nice and accommodating. She showed us around the apartment and made suggestions for restaurants. There was even a table full of maps and Rome guide books so we didn't have to purchase our own!

I would definitely stay in this apartment again if I returned to Rome.
