This was a great place to stay and honestly really hard to beat the value. It is a newly renovated apartment with a fantastic walk in shower and towel warmer.
The location was great! We walked to the colosseum in like 20 minutes and from there all the rest of the key Rome attractions. There is also a subway station by a park that’s about a 2 minute walk. Incredible! The kitchen was well stocked with coffee and tea which you could help yourself to, as well as a croissant to go. There were numerous small touches throughout the apartment that made it feel special and thoughtful.
The slight downsides are the following: you rent with other travelers so it actually feels like a hostel (unfortunately not living with local family with local tips). Also we were caught off guard with needing to pay €7 per night as a city tax. We had to go break some of our larger bills and make our way back up the stairs to leave this in the room at check out. (Can this not be billed through Airbnb?). Parking is also challenging: expect €8/day for street parking, or €30/day for a garage.
We would stay here again though!
