Carmen is a wonderful host. She arranged airport pick up and drop off for us and allowed us to store our luggage before check in time. These little things are so important and helpful when you are coming in from a long flight! The house is beautiful, well equipped and in a very nice area that is convenient to public transportation and lots of delicious ristorantes! It fit our group of 6 perfectly! We had a few problems, some that were beyond her control. There is some construction going on at the road that tripped the breakers a few times and left us without power. It was an easy fix but worth mentioning. There was a problem with the hot water going out intermittently. She had someone come look at it the same day I alerted her to the problem (she really is great!). My only other problem would be the 2 double beds. The mattresses have body shaped depressions in them from so much use which made them kind of uncomfortable, especially for a week. I definitely recommend staying here!
