If you’re looking for a place that’s affordable, close to the landmarks and right next to the train station then look no further. My stay at Jimena’s place was a delightful experience. She gave me tips and wonderful places to eat via WhatsApp. The place is really close to the colosseum (10-15 min walk) and (10 min walk) to the train station.
TIPS in Rome: Avoid using Uber in Rome as it’s really expensive so use local taxi’s and transport. Watch out for pickpockets they will try get close to you on purpose. Learn the basics of Italian as English is not commonly spoken there.
