I literally cried when I had to leave. I was there for 5 weeks and it was perfect in every way. Sara is smart, funny, helpful and accomplished.
You can't be any more central in Rome than across the street from the Colosseum. Public transportation is right at the front door. The room is comfortable & the private bath is very nice. The view of the Coliseum and Palatine Hill inspired me everyday. Loved having a glass of wine on the terrace at sunset overlooking the coliseum.
The shutters are nice to keep out the light and the ambient noise from being in the middle of a tourist area. Being able to do my laundry every week was nice. Sara gave me lots of space in refrigerator for my food and an entire cabinet. I didn't watch the TV much because the Wi-Fi was fast and reliable so I watched programs on my laptop.
Staying with Sara was like staying with a sister, and I already miss her. She was so gracious to me, inviting me places, introducing me to family and friends as if I were a friend. Molto gentile.
