The location was perfect. I love walking. I especially loved walking all around Rome, and this place was a perfect jumping off point for just about everything I wanted to see. Just as everybody's noted, the place can be a bit noisy in the evenings, but as a heavy sleeper and after a jam-packed day, it didn't bother me. The hosts were great about communicating, which definitely helped to make my check-in (really, my entire stay) go smoothly. They were also full of helpful tips and suggestions and plan itinerary ideas.
