Unbelievably Lovely
by Anne and GaryWe intend to return to Rome (we loved it and the people) and we definitely will stay at this house again. The house was extremely comfortable and beautiful. The location to the city cant be beat, it is perfect! You are right in the city yet in a private garden. The bed was so comfortable I had to investigate the make of the sheets 🙂 . And our hostess was so kind as to show us around the area so we could find the shops that first night. 5 stars all around!
