This was my families first ever airbnb experience and what a wonderful one it was. Charming Francesca greeted us at her stunning apartment (exactly like the write-up and photos) and gave us a tour and showed us how everything worked and where everything was stored. Her sister, Michele, made a very decadent chocolate cake scattered with nuts, which was a lovely welcoming touch.
The apartment is steeped in history and yet feels warm and friendly. It is in a great neighbourhood, with a couple of great restaurants a minute or two away. Da Enzo is definitely worth a visit. We also discovered a great bakery 4 minutes from the apartment. The area has a calm and tranquility about it. You can wander around without people trying to get you to buy random gadgets like they do nearer the key tourist hotspots. The cobbled streets are charming and just across from the apartment is a church, or may even have been a nunnery as there were a number of nuns practice singing in the church.
The major sites are a walk away so you do feel very part of Rome living in this apartment. When we return to Rome we will not hesitate to book this gem of an apartment once again. Thank you Francesca and Michele for a great stay.
