Anna and Franco are very nice people. Anna has the best intentions for you and is very caring and interested in all that you do in Rome. She wants to be your family for your stay and your friends afterwards. This is a different Airbnb stay. You cannot use the kitchen. You are given a huge welcome pack in your room with bathroom supplies and snacks. You get breakfast every morning. It feels like a hotel. The thing to be mindful of is that you are not given a key so to come and go as you please is not so easy. The pets are a non issue. They will greet you at the door but if you don't want them around they won't be. On the other hand if you want to play and interact with them they are beautiful creatures. The location is about 10-15 mins from metro station and there is a bus outside the door but it was not so reliable. Often we would be standing for 20 minutes past the scheduled time with no sign of the bus which was frustrating. We recommend to stay here.
