Sara's place is exactly as listed/pictured and she is very nice. There is a nice balcony with a great view! The place is very clean and she provided some snacks/breakfast items. Unfortunately there was only one bottle of water and no real kitchen area to get more, so would be nice to have a place to get water (we did not feel comfortable drinking from the bathroom faucet) or provide some sort of filter or drinking water fountain. She did have an espresso machine available, which was great! The place is definitely out of the tourist trap area (short walk to metro and bus stops), but does require some planning ahead with bus and metro routes if you truly want to see all of the sites in Rome. It is very close to the Vatican area, but a bit more difficult to get to other areas, so just be prepared to walk! There are some good restaurants close by and again, nice to be a bit removed from the crowds. Overall, I would recommend! Thanks again, Sara! :)
