Maria was enthusiastic, friendly and adorable! Our stay exceeded our expectations! We thought we were getting a room in a private home but it was actually a rental home with two additional rooms for rent. We shared public spaces with two other guests (whom we didn't even cross paths with). Each room had a private bath and bedroom with a fully secured door/lock. We felt VERY secure as there was a security lock to the building, a lock to enter the apartment and another lock to our room. The public space consisted of a kitchen and dining area. Maria set private breakfast tables for each couple. She also included a self serve breakfast with a generous choice of options.
This property was the cleanest, most modern place we stayed in several cities while in Italy! The appointments were stylish and the bathroom was divine! (Unlike other Air bnbs which we stayed, she also included shampoos and conditioners, which were appreciated as our travel sized toiletries were depleted) The towels were thick and the room had AC.
The location was about two blocks from the Termini train station. We did notice that walking just two blocks further greatly improved the neighborhood. We had hoped to enjoy the park a block away but discovered that there were transients lingering around it and that the gates were locked up. However, venturing a few blocks further, we found great restaurants, wine shops and a Carrefores grocery store.
Since it was close to the train station, we expected that the neighborhood would not be "touristy". There were several merchant warehouses intermingled with apartments on the street. Access to tour busses, taxis and trains were all steps away from the apartment. Logistically this was one of the easiest places we stayed and it was a welcome relief after two weeks of travelling.
