Francesca's apartment and location are exactly as pictured and described. The place is located on a little square, steps from the Colosseum and San Pietro in Vincoli and about a 10 minute walk to the heart of the trendy Monti area. The three cafes in the square do a steady business from early morning to late evening, fueled by engineering students from the university right around the corner. They're good for a quick bite, but there are plenty of great restaurants in Monti, a few blocks away and down an ancient stairway. If you are interested in shopping, head for Via Nazionale, a few more blocks, on the far side of the Monti area. The apartment itself was very clean and everything worked. We were met by Vanessa, Francesca's sister, who arranged to store our bags upon early arrival and again to facilitate a late departure. All in all, a good stay.
