This is like staying with my Italian relatives, only in my own private room with my own private bathroom.

Federico is personal and friendly and helpful and full of informative advice on local restaurants and sites with full directions and maps (even bus schedules) all printed out for you personally.

The place is very private and quiet, and the rooms very modern and clean and comfortable. Think Ikea meets Rome. The breakfast room is well stocked and he keeps the refrigerator full of ice cream and other good stuff like yogurt. The morning baked goods are from the bakery next door and are delicious.

The location is great, a short walk from the main train station (Roma Termini) and an easy walk to the Trevi Fountain, main bus routes, local grocery stores, and ATMs. It is located on a quiet side street but 5 minutes walking to the Repubblica Fountain/Metro stop.
