I traveled to Rome with my siblings, and we stayed there for 7 nights. Therefor, for us, it was very important to find a good place to stay. I think Katia’s place was the perfect place for us foreigners that didn’t know the city well. We landed in Rome pretty late at night and it took us a little while to get a taxi and get to the apartment. We were met by Katia’s friend, who btw was very nice and patient (considering we came later than what we had arranged and she had waited for us for a while). She was super nice and showed us around the apartment and talked a little bit about Rome. She gave us a map and showed us how to get to different places.
The area was nice and quite. There were shops and markets very close by. The walking distance to the metro wasn’t bad (~8 minutes) and you quickly get used to it. Katia was a great host that answered every question and was helpful all the way during our stay. Thank you for the good experience!
