“Rome is undoubtedly one of the most interesting cities in the world. A good way to start or end a trip with its endless monuments and architectural gems at every turn. To make things even better, Chiara was a perfect house-swapping partner. She was attentive to every correspondence in our trip, from the planning phase through the time we spent in her apartment. My experience suggests that Chiara wants to make the exchange a very nice one. She offers a very clean apartment with an updated kitchen and bathrooms. There is plenty of space to move around as well. From a location standpoint, her apartment is just close enough to be within walking distance to many Roman hi-lights or, at least, a short taxi ride away from others. The Vatican and Borghese Gardens are within my walking radius, maybe not some people. The Coliseum and Forum a 20 minute cab ride away. That puts here apartment in a quieter section of Rome where you could be hanging out in local restaurants and bars which is much to my preference. The hordes of visitors at the "must see" destinations can be a bit of an over load. So, this location worked very well for me. I would like to extend a heart-felt thanks to Chiara from my traveling partners. She made our visit a very good stay. I highly recommend a swap with Chiara if Rome is in your future. Be well, Geoff and Stella”
