Elisa is such a responsive and gracious host. Her apartment was perfect for us. It was very clean, comfortable beds, instant hot water, with a great view of the neighborhood. Traveling from the United States, we wanted an authentic neighborhood separated somewhat from other tourists. Her place is perfect in that regard. We walked almost everywhere around Rome from her place. There is a cafe down there street with coffee and pastries, an open market within walking distance. Great restaurants. The experience exceeded our expectations.
