I stayed three nights at Silvano's. Silvano is a superb host, meeting me at the train station and even giving me a ride back to the apartment. He was full of information and a real pleasure to chat with as well The room is very comfortable, and I found it be very quiet at all hours of the day. The location is perhaps not as central as some would like, but there is a train station and metro nearby, and I enjoyed staying in a real Roman neighborhood. I would definitely stay with Silvano again the next time I'm in Rome!
