paola is the best host and literally the nicest person i have ever met. i was really nervous about visiting roma for the first time by myself but i immediately felt better after arriving at her place. she gave me pasta and tea, and some breakfast before i left in the morning. she also helped me figure out how to get a covid test certificate before i flew home. and most importantly she was really kind and caring and spent time talking to me about my travels, life, family, etc.
the apartment itself is in a good location. it’s a short walk from the train station. monti is a beautiful neighborhood and seems like a safe place. the apartment is so cute and cozy and feels like a hobbit hole. there is also a rooftop terrace. i genuinely wish i could have stayed longer.
