Serena was kind and helpful laying out some day trips in Roma. She had some materials prepared when we arrived showing various routes to see particular landmarks but didn't hesitate to discuss some other possibilities unique to our interests. Overall a very warm and friendly person I think.

The apartment itself was located in a central part of the Monti neighborhood/district in old Rome and was very conveniently located for trips to the Colosseum/Senate or toward Trevi fountain. It was also not far from the main train station (termini).
