I am always deeply appreciative when someone opens their home and allows us to stay in their private space.
It allows for a much more flexible and relaxed vacation and this space is a perfect rental for that.
The location of Francesco's home was tremendously convenient especially for those who like to walk. We had not stayed in this neighborhood before so this was a wonderful surprise.
The apartment is remarkably quiet for being in the middle of Rome and the patio is simply spectacular. We had incredible weather and were able to dine outside for all of our meals. I don't want to mislead anyone and suggest that there is a view, there is not, but the patio is large, quiet and comfortable. It's a great calming space after bouncing around Rome for the day.
Our Hostmaster contact was very kind, helpful and responsive. They were very considerate on our arrival and quick in providing helpful recommendations throughout the week.
My only note of caution would be that the second bedroom is a bunk bed. If two adult couples are renting the space, you should be aware that someone is going to have to climb a ladder to get in and out of bed. It was not a problem for our adult children but it would not have been terribly convenient if I was the one relegated to the bunk bed. However, I think other benefits outweigh this concern and if were renting in Rome again, I would definitely stay here, even if I had to be in the bunk bed.
