First of all Curzio is a “super-host”: very attentive, gave great recommendations, and made sure my stay was smooth. His place is very comfortable, light, and beautiful. I thought the location was great especially if you want to use the trains within or out of Rome. This can save you a lot of time and $. If not, a cab is easy to get there and every cabbie knows where “Termeni” is to get back. The area is safe, and I actually walked everywhere just to earn my dinners! There is a working elevator to take you up to the 5th floor apartment. The bedroom is the only area that is not full of light, which I LOVED! It was also very quiet. I slept better here than my own home or anywhere on the trip. Another reason for that is the tempurpedic mattress and pillows! There is plenty of room to hang clothes etc. If you need to rest at night, the entertainment set-up is amazing!! Projector with great sound. You could watch any of his wonderful dvd selection or hookup HDMI from your own computer (obviously need HDMI port or an adapter). If you are a reader, don’t pack books and just pick any one of the many wonderful ones off of the shelf. Only things to consider for some: the bed was a little short, I am 5’10” and my feet hung off sometimes. Also, the bed is “split”, and I HATE split beds, but this one did not bother me at all, there was very little seam and the tempurpedic made it feel like one mattress. Lastly, I had some trouble truly streaming video, but the speed was 10mb/s which is high-speed in Italy. So just stick to downloads and dvds probably best. I would stay here again any day! Thank you so much!!
