Alessia was a sweet and helpful host. She spoke just enough English to be able to give us good tips on where to go and how to get there, and was very attentive in making our stay the best possible. She arranged for us to be picked up at Fiumicini airport, and then the same for departure, for a reasonable price. The studio room was clean and large and airy and had a roomy bathroom and also a small refrigerator and sink in the bedroom, a small table with 2 chairs, a hot pot for making instant coffee or tea, with both provided, as well as various items in the fridge. The large bed was comfortable. The studio was in a quiet and safe feeling neighborhood and only a 15 minute walk to the Coloseum and Forum (as you passed other Roman ruins along the way)! Right down the block was the 81 bus that took us to all the major places we ended up going (only drawback is that this bus didn't run very often and sometimes we ended up waiting @45 minutes). Every night we returned "home" we got to see the Coloseum again! What could be better than that?!
Alessia's studio is a wonderful place to stay in Rome!
