We loved our stay at Residenza di Via Piccardi mostly because of the hospitality that Frederica provided. She was genuinely warm and welcoming, which we found especially wonderful as we waited for our checked luggage to arrive. The bag got delayed because of a close connection flight in Istanbul and only arrived several days after we landed in Italy.

Read moreEverything was perfect, it's been the best experience i've ever had so far. The attention received by the receptionist (Andreea) was a perfect example of professionalism : i was there with my partner and since we checked in, Andreea was always asking if there was anything we needed or anything she could do to make our stay more comfortable.
