We felt very welcomed at Francesco’s apartment. His sweet mother welcomed us at the door, and she was a joy to chat with. She gave us a tour of the apartment, helped us with the city map, and gave us a crash course on Rome’s history. We loved our host’s responsiveness, no matter what time of the day we had questions for him, his turnaround time was amazing. Loved our stay at Francesco’s; would recommend it highly for anyone interested to stay within Vatican’s vicinity. Too bad we did no get a chance to meet with in person. Next time.
