I really loved the openness of Emi's and Sarah's home. My roommate Tiffany was originally uncertain about how she felt about the hostile-like setup, but immediately changed her mind after meeting Emi and the other guests residing in the well-decorated and uniquely furnished flat. All needs are anticipated - towels, bedding, shampoo, and even alcohol (haha). The people are very friendly (we met a wonderful guy named Conrad from Berlin) and the location is perfect for someone wanting to get a feel for a different aspect of Rome. Tiff and I visited the Vatican Museum and St. Peter's Basillica with ease due to how close the 81 bus was to Emi's airbnb. Would definitely stay again. Also, Emi has great music taste (definitely check out the noHipster YouTube!). :)
