We have stayed at Paola's flat in Rome for few nights (28-02-05-03). I have booked the flat through AirBnB without issues. Paola was very responsive to my queries. The flat is quite spacious and we had whole flat for ourselves.
The flat is located in the east-central side of Rome, very close to the main station Termini Roma, about 19 minutes’ walk. On our arrival, friend of Paola, Patrizia came to check us in. She was on time and she kindly gave us Rome map and explained main attractions. That was very useful.
The area around flat has many restaurants and shops. However, the area looks rough, the buildings have been vandalized. The other downside is that there is a bar in front of the flat. Some people can be noisy. So keep that in mind. We experienced 2 first nights of on and off noise. Apart from that the flat is located in close proximity to Colosseum, you can reach there on foot in 30 minutes.
We did not get a proper duvet, so please let Paola know what your preference is. The heating in the flat is very good though. You can regulate the boiler up and down manually.
We could check out by ourselves by leaving the keys in the flat.
