My experience at Paola's place was absolutely amazing!! I actually had an issue receiving funds from my dad back home and got to Paola's place very overwhelmed by my situation. She was so kind and helped me calm down and offered me some tea as I walked into the door. She treated me like her own daughter by offering me advice on how to fix my situation and offered continuous support. Being in a foreign country can be stressful, and Paola made my experience 1000 times better than it would have been if I was alone. I want everyone to know how generous and kind Paola is! The room is very cozy and has a nice homestay feel with a rooftop you can hangout in too, which was so awesome. I only stayed one night, but I wish I had stayed more because Paola offered to make me breakfast too! Note that there are stairs up to the apartment and up further to the bedroom, but it was a fun experience seeing a real Roman apartment. There's a ton of restaurants and a great gelato place up the street. Also super close to Roma Termini and about 10 minutes from the subway. Plenty of buses around too for easy access to the major sites. I would highly recommend for girls looking for a place to stay!
Thank you again, Paola!!!
