We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was perfect, about 5 minutes away from Vittorio Emanuele or Termini station and 2 minutes from Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore (definitely worth a visit!). At night the neighbourhood is badly lit, but nothing that would make you feel uncomfortable. There is a big supermarket nearby if you need anything.
Everyone at Buonarotti Home was very friendly and helpful. They have a 24 hour reception so there is always somebody around. The room was quite small, but we were away all day so for us it was not a problem. Our room was clean and simple. The decoration of the "red" room felt a bit dated and could use a modern twist. It could get noisy in the hallway sometimes as other guests were arriving or leaving their rooms. We barely heard any noises coming from the street, which was good.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a budget, simple and central place to stay in Rome.
