During my two-week stay at Alessandra's and Gennaro's place I was taken such a great care of. This was a true 'home away from home'. I can only confirm previous reviews that the hosts are exceptionally caring and sharing people, great conversationalists (!), and are always ready to help with advice. They also make sure their guests have a great experience in Rome because they themselves know the Eternal City very well and have own favourite places. We had some meals together (they both are great cooks) and I have met some of their friends. I think I have also converted to a 'dog-person' because Miss is adorable!
Infrastructure-wise, all you need is right there (food, transport, railway station, other services, direct connection with city centre). Every Sunday a huge outdoor market takes place literally around the corner.
The room is perfect for both a short-term and a longer stay, with a very nice separate bathroom.
