Kerstin was an amazing host!! She welcomed us and showed us how to get to the tram, which is bo more than a 4 minute walk from the house and takes you directly into the heart of Rome, she told us exactly where to go to get the tickets for the tram, and how to get to the local supermarket to get some things. The apartment is quiet, it had ceiling fans to circulate air and keep you cool. It comfortably slept the five of us with no problems. If I am ever going back to Rome I will definitely stay with them again. If you are wanting a wonderful place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Rome, yet still have easy access to downtown with an owner that will answer any questions you may have and will help you in any way possible then stay with kerstin!
