I am thinking of booking this workshop shortly after my arrival in Rome with my two children. It is usually held in a local "restaurant" but they have suggested I do a private workshop since children are involved (ages 8 and 14). I think this is a good idea, also. However, my hesitation stems from the fact that they said we could do the workshop in our rental apartment, since it is usually held at the client's hotel. I have read MANY favorable reviews of this company but would still like to get some feedback as to whether this is a good idea? Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Did you mean to post some link?

What exactly is your reservation about having it held at your apartment? I would guess that the suggestion was made (rather than holding it at a restaurant) so that you'd have more freedom to be comfortable,as would the kids. It sounds fine to me,and I look forward to hearing about it when you return.

cmt - sorry, but I did not mean to post a link. I think the brief workshop is a great idea, my reservation was about having it held at our apartment.

massagediva - my main reservation was about having a "stranger" come into our private space (a single 40-something woman with two children) while in a foreign country. I guess my motherly instincts are making me a bit paranoid?

Yes,you are being a bit paranoid.As you can read here,many of us speak very highly of Context Rome and I'd be shocked if someone from their company robbed or assualted you.
