Marino's place was fantastic. It was spacious, clean and well-furnished in every room. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking, especially those traditional Roman meals. It's also at a great location with easy access to local bus and tram lines. The walk to the tram is approximately 5 minutes and then it is a 15-20 minute ride to the central area of Rome. The tram line runs down through Trastevere.
Marino is a very attentive host. He responds to emails and texts immediately and will gladly answer any questions that arise. He speaks English well and is easy to communicate with. It brings him great joy when his guests enjoy Rome. He was also very accommodating when we had visitors. Lastly, for long-term stays he provides maid service and she is very meticulous.
Marino's place is in a residential area of Rome and so we did not feel like tourists. The neighborhood has bakeries, a tailor, pharmacy, street vendors, two main grocery stores, several restaurants and department stores, all within a 3 minute walks.
Jump at the chance to stay with Marino.
