Rossella is amazing as a host and as a person. She was very attentive to our needs and yet gave us tons of privacy during our ten day stay. We started every day on the terrace and ended every day there. The terrace is just as pictured and with a large grocery store 1 black away we got fresh eggs ,cheese, tomatoes melons, , and crusty bread etc.. that make it easy to prepare meals half of the time we were there. There are great restaurants up the street and 3 coffee bars on the same block. We have never felt safer in our travels and even late into the night the neighborhood is safe and the people friendly.
The subway system is just down the street and if you learn it it is easy to get to any of the major sites. Once you get it down it will help you connect the whole system in your head and getting around is a breeze. We tend to be more travelers and not tourists so we stay in major cities for at least a week and staying at Rossella's makes understanding the city and how to navigate it so easy. It is such a clean beautiful environment that she provides in a safe neighborhood that all you have to focus on is having fun, learning and enjoying the people.
Again, we think it would be foolish to go to Rome and not give Rossella's place serious consideration! The whole environment from shop keepers to the proximity of the subway stop and stores makes it absolutely an enjoyable experience. This is so much better than staying in hotels that become impersonal. Here you interact with the Italian people, which for us was one of the major reasons we went to Rome.
