Emi and Sara's place is just absolutely gorgeous, a true gem in Rome. Our early morning breakfast in the sun outside in the garden was truly one of our highlights of our stay. It is a separate house on the same property where both of the hosts live with their two sweet dogs, and has its own private garden. The area is quite residential although close to Tiburtina Street where you can find lots of shops, restaurants etc. There's a wonderful restaurant co-op on the same street that I highly recommend with delicious food and always full of locals. The only down side to staying here was how far it was from the city center (a good 40mins) which if you are only going for 1 or 2 days is not the most convenient as you'll spend some time on public transport. It is a 20/25min walk from the metro although there is a bus right outside of the house that takes you to the main station at Tiburtina where you can then transfer to the metro. We got stuck without transportation at night and had to take a cab back which was quite expensive, and there were times during the day where the bus schedule was very unreliable. If you decide staying here, which I highly recommend, i suggest not being in a rush and having lot of patience with public transport! However, if distance isn't an issue for you and you have some time to enjoy some meals in the garden Emi and Sara's place is where you want to be. They are wonderful, attentive and just fabulous hosts.
