We had a great stay and felt welcomed from the start, with a lovely fruit basket, warm smile and discussion with Francesca about the house and the area! She provided recommendations, booked a taxi for us when leaving and was just so helpful and lovely! The house is gorgeous littered beautifully with some of Francesca's own paintings! Plenty of space and light! Supermarket right next door and to the right up the road the river to take you on your daily adventures! Air conditioning was a bonus, as well as nifty hair dryers in each bathroom! In August bring your mosquito spray and plug ins and also comfy shoes - Rome is an outdoor museum of wonderment! We can't wait to come back! We came across the best place to eat: Rolli 1 Vino e Cucina (via Etorre Rolli) they are away for 2 weeks now (like many of the best bars and restaurants in Italy!!!) but if you are there mid September you HAVE TO go! It is only 5 minutes from the house (take a left from outside).
