The Garbatella room and private bath was quaint and clean for our three nights in Rome. It is next to the train tracks, but they have double paned windows to reduce the noise, so it sounds more like staying on a busy street. The location for us was terrific! We could walk into the tourist sector of Rome all day, and then come unwind in a mode local/student/artist oriented side of town with great coffee shops, bars, and restaurants. Andrea welcomed us even late at night, and the other hosts were eager to please in the morning around breakfast. If you're looking for a nice inexpensive place to stay in Rome for a few days, we'd recommend this room.
