Paola's place is great. It feels more like a little hotel with a shared kitchen. My room had a private bathroom (I think every room does?), a very comfy bed and convenient lighting, as well as a good workspace that would be good for a longer stay. The kitchen was stocked with coffee, and while there isn't a stove there is a convenient little hot plate. Everything was incredibly clean. Paola was wonderful - I came in late and she came down to the bus stop to find me! She's a kind and warm person, and I had a wonderful time talking with her. The location is great - close to the bus stop and Trastevere station, in a quieter part of the quarter and a convenient walk across the bridge to Testaccio. My stay was very short but it would be an awesome place. to stay if you were interested in the Porta Portese flea market. Grazie Paola!
